U.S. hopes for North Korea talks in days, weeks: Pompeo

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States hopes to get back to denuclearization talks with North Korea in the coming days or weeks, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday.

 

Negotiations aimed at dismantling Pyongyang's nuclear and missile programs have stalled since the collapse of a second summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi in February.

 

Trump and Kim met again in June at the border between North Korea and South Korea and agreed to reopen working-level talks, but that has not happened.

"We know Chairman Kim has continued to make the commitment to denuclearize. We are hopeful that in the coming days or perhaps weeks we'll be back at the negotiating table with them. That's the best outcome," Pompeo said in an interview with ABC's "This Week."

 

North Korea has fired a series of short-range missiles in recent weeks in protest against U.S.-South Korea joint military exercises and the adoption of new weapons, complicating the reopening of the talks.

 

Pompeo said that despite those short-range tests, which he called disappointing, Kim has not violated the commitments he made to Trump and the U.S. goal remains a verified denuclearized North Korea.

 

"I think President Trump would be very disappointed if Chairman Kim doesn't return to the negotiating table or conducts missile tests that are inconsistent with the agreements that they made when the two of them were together these three times," he said.

(Hopes for talks) that’s as weak as a kitten it is amusing in a way to watch little Kim play Donald but seriously how about blockading that sob let his people know get rid of him and the nukes then we will help you out.I know Donald is desperate for something to call a(win) and it shows some negoater just pathetic

Donald has a problem (ok, not just one): First he called him rocket man but then he call him my friend and he is sure about this and that. Whatever Kim does, Trump has a problem with his own comments which he made over the years.

Kim still wants his Burger ???? King so the fat lady is still out of the picture. 

At least Trump is trying to get the Norks in line which is a lot more than any of bumbling residents of the White House did.

You can’t be serious every potus since Truman has had this problem Donald has made it worse much worse

Time for some more beautiful letters, and another "summit" to "share the love"?

 

And let's get FLOTUS involved as she apparently "knows" Chairman Kim so well?

 

Meanwhile, keep building nukes, ballistic missiles and a sub to launch them. What could go wrong?

Anyone who thinks that NK will give up it's nukes are deluding themselves, short of nuking NK, nothing will make him give us his ace in the sleeve, at best, those buddy, buddy shows will work to keep to missiles in their silos for now...

Donald gave Kim control-exactly what other presidents were avoiding.
