High-ranking DPRK diplomat urges US to drop hostility

Date: 19/11/2019 | Source: Pyongyang Times | Read original version at source

Kim Kye Gwan, advisor to the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK, released the following statement on Nov 18:

Reading an article posted by President Trump on Twitter on Nov 17, I interpreted it as a meaning indicative of another DPRK-US summit.

Three rounds of DPRK-US summit meetings and talks have been held since June last year, but no particular improvement has been achieved in the DPRK-US relations. And the US only seeks to earn time, pretending it has made progress in settling the issue of the Korean peninsula.

We are no longer interested in such talks that bring nothing to us.

As we have got nothing in return, we will no longer give the US president anything to brag about, but make the US pay for the successes President Trump is so proud of as his administrative achievements.
