WASHINGTON: U.S. President Donald Trump has said that North Korea has no economic future if it did not renounce its nuclear weapons, agencies have said.

Trump’s statement comes at a time when the Pentagon confirmed the United States and South Korea agreed to end the joint large-scale spring military exercises.

Speaking at a Conservative Political Action Conference, Trump said that North Korea has an incredible and brilliant economic future if it made a deal. “But the North does not have any economic future if it has nuclear weapons,” agencies quoted Trump as saying.

Trump further said that the relationship with North Korea seemed to be “very, strong.”

Reports said acting Pentagon Chief Patrick Shanahan spoke with his South Korea counterpart and they agreed to adapt their training programs.
