[quote]North Korea has branded the US attitude at the latest talks over its nuclear programme "regrettable" and "extremely troubling".

The statement, by an unnamed foreign ministry official, contradicted the version of events given by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo just hours before.

He had said progress was made during his two-day visit to Pyongyang.

It was the first time he had visited North Korea since the Donald Trump-Kim Jong-un summit in Singapore.

The North Korean statement, carried by the official KCNA news agency, said the US had gone against the spirit of the summit by putting unilateral pressure on the country to abandon its nuclear weapons.

"We had anticipated the US side would come with a constructive idea, thinking we would take something in return," the North Korean statement said.

"But through the high-level talks, the trust between the DPRK and the United States is facing a dangerous situation where our resolve for denuclearisation, which has been firm and steadfast, may falter."[/quote]

Trump never cared about a true summit and resulting pact with NKO; he lacks the ability to think that far ahead, not to mention the acumen to even hold an intelligible conversation.

He was only interested in setting records, in 'firsts,' and in appearances. North Korea problem? I alone can fix it - and look, I did...and bigly, hugely, most/best/biggest/firstest ever, believe me. Now let's move on.

Except this isn't a board room filled with sycophants where someone can be bullied and lied to without the rest of the world noticing.

@ButterFly2023 I'm telling you, that logic doesn't apply to nuclear weapons. XD

@Xuan12 Oh my mistake : ) .

I have to agree with you. In all his activities both personal and political, Trump seems first and foremost to place value on what will make him look good.

Oh wow, isn't this exactly what some people, myself included, said was going to happen? 馃槀

@HerKing I work in ambulances and ER rooms. It's not like figuring these things out is my full time job or anything. It took about 20 minutes of reading on the history of the North Korean nuclear program to figure out why they want it. Not like I'm a full-time, paid public official or anything.

@Xuan12 What makes it much worse is Trump has not, does not and never will realise he's a dumb fuck who has the aptitude of a plant.

But, on the positive side, Pompeo and the Chief of N. Korea's intelligence services, agreed that some progress was made on some issues. They, however, did not say what these issues were. Perhaps on the Rocket Man CD? What's up with that BTW?

Someone should send Pompeo a link to the Wikepedia entry on the US Pueblo negotiations.
Xuan1231-35, M
@Northwest Yeah, what exactly did North Korea do for us? Oh, right...nothing. BEST NEGOTIATORS! XD

@Xuan12 And so honourable

Wait, wasn't Trump getting a Nobel Prize for solving the North Korean crisis single handedly in one meeting? Who could have predicted that they weren't on board? lol

I told you there hadn't been a deal the last time I saw one of your idiot questions. But you would rather listen to the voices in your head. Get the straightjacket, Ralph.
ButterFly202318-21, M
I hope they double down and sell the tech. Show Donald the art of the deal.
katielassF
@ButterFly2023 And I hope the morons they sell it to use it on you. You fuckers are really not fit to live.
HerKing61-69, M
@katielass Spoken like a Trumper!! You know don't you dumbfucker that all out nuclear war is terminal for everyone, eh fuckwit?
