New York Times: North Korea Is Open to Ending Nuclear Efforts, South Says

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, has told South Korean envoys that he is willing to begin negotiations with the United States on abandoning its nuclear weapons and that it would suspend all nuclear and missile tests while engaged in such talks, South Korean officials said on Tuesday.

Shocked

You ever look at a news story and say, Is this really happening?

I'm more apt to look at a news story and say "Yeah, right."

Do they celebrate April Fool's Day in March in Korea by any chance?

I, too, am supremely skeptical that Kim would stop his nuclear program, just as I am about Iran under that feckless agreement Obama signed. However, just the fact that he is willing to emerge from his mushroom patch to talk means something has recently changed in his mind.

North Korea says choice of 'Christmas gift' is up to US amid missile tensions

Quote:
“The dialogue touted by the US is, in essence, nothing but a foolish trick hatched to keep the DPRK [North Korea] bound to dialogue and use it in favour of the political situation and election in the US,” Ri said.

Joshua Pollack, the editor of the Nonproliferation Review, pointed out that Pyongyang has used the threat of a “gift” before, to refer to its first test launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) in 2017.

He said that Pyongyang also warned the Japanese prime minister, Shinzo Abe, that he could face “a real ballistic missile in the not distant future and under his nose”.

“They might not necessarily wait until the end of the year to show their displeasure on how the diplomacy with the United States has gone,” Pollack, a senior research associate at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies, said. “I wouldn’t be surprised to see an ICBM go over Japan on Christmas Day itself.”
