WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration will insist North Korea follow through on its commitment to completely eliminate its nuclear weapons before the U. S. agrees to the lifting of international sanctions, the State Department’s special envoy for North Korea said Monday.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration will insist North Korea follow through on its commitment to completely eliminate its nuclear weapons before the U. S. agrees to the lifting of international sanctions, the State Department’s special envoy for North Korea said Monday.
In his first public comments since President Donald Trump met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un last month, envoy Stephen Biegun said „the missing variable“ in making a deal is the North’s unwillingness to offer complete, verifiable denuclearization.
„We are not going to do denuclearization incrementally,“ Biegun said at a conference sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
