SEOUL: South Korean President Moon Jae-in said on Monday he hopes North Korea responds positively when he meets US President Donald Trump this month as part of efforts to restart denuclearisation talks with the North.
There was criticism in Washington that Seoul might have over-sold Kim’s denuclearisation commitment and gone too far in pushing for sanctions relief, while Moon's advisers have said the United States cannot stick to an"all or nothing" approach when trying to strike a deal over North Korea's nuclear weapons programme.
"This is in no way helpful to our national interest or the future of the Korean peninsula," Moon said."Such attempts can be labelled truly irresponsible, especially when we recall the state of crisis we endured before dialogue was launched."
