WASHINGTON: US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Friday he hoped North Korean leader Kim Jong Un would use a meeting of the country's parliament next week to state publicly"it would be the right thing" for Pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons.
Pompeo said US-North Korea diplomatic channels remained open and the two sides have"had conversations after Hanoi about how to move forward," but he did not elaborate. The Hanoi summit, the second between Trump and Kim in less than a year, fell apart over a failure to reconcile North Korean demands for sanctions relief with US demands for Kim to give up a nuclear weapons programme that now threatens the United States.
