Pyongyang-Sana
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) announced on Monday that it had received a US offer through a third country for new talks with the United States, saying it was not interested in such talks.
"The US Special Representative for the DPRK, Stephen Pigeon, who led the US delegation to the Stockholm talks last month, sent an offer through a third country to meet again and hold negotiations within a month," the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) quoted the DPRK's representative in Sweden as saying. Next December. ”
"I can't understand why Pigeon is spreading news about what is called 'DPRK-US relations through a third party,'" Kim said. "He is not thinking of making direct and frank contact with me as his dialogue partner if he has any suggestions or any idea about a dialogue between us." "His behavior only raises our doubts with Washington's intention."
"If negotiated problems are possible, we are ready to meet with the United States anywhere, at any time. If the United States is still seeking to satisfy us temporarily, in an effort to pass the deadline at the end of this year, as it did during the negotiations," the statement said. "The DPRK and the United States are working at the level of work in Sweden in early October. We are not ready for such talks."
"Now that the US side has already informed us of our requirements and our priorities, the ball is in their court," Kim said. "If Washington, which has not offered any fundamental solution to lifting hostility toward the DPRK, thinks it can lead us to negotiations that end in a dead document at any moment." "With changing attitudes, there will be no possibility of compromise."
Last month, the DPRK reiterated its refusal to continue negotiations with the United States unless it abandoned its hostile policy toward Pyongyang.
