North Korea’s Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho has categorically said Pyongyang’s position will remain intact even if the US seeks further talks.
He was speaking after the Vietnam summit between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, which ended without any agreement.
North’s Foreign Minister said they raised the issue for partial sanctions relief, not a total lifting.
However, the Trump administration says the North demanded a complete lifting of the measures.
