The U.S. expects North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to continue his moratorium on nuclear and missile testing, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Friday.
div > div.group > p:first-child"> Pompeo's comments come after North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui said early Friday that Kim is considering suspending nuclear talks with the U.S. Choe said that the North was disappointed by the U.S. and North Korea's inability to reach an agreement at the February summit in Vietnam between Kim and President Donald Trump.
"Whether to maintain this moratorium or not is the decision of our chairman of the state affairs commission," she said."He will make his decision in a short period of time." "That's Chairman Kim's word," Pompeo said."We have every expectation that he will live up to that commitment."At last month's failed summit, Trump pushed for the complete denuclearization of North Korea, while Kim sought an easing of sanctions. The summit was set to end with both leaders signing some form of agreement, but they could not reach a deal.
