Korean Central News Agency: North Korean senior officials reiterated that the DPRK has no intention to hold talks with the United States

　　China News Service, July 7th. According to a report by the Korean Central News Agency on the 7th, the North Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Quan Zhenggen, once again clearly reminded, "We have no intention of sitting with Americans."

　　The Korean Central News Agency reported that, not long ago, Cui Shanji, the first deputy minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of North Korea, has clearly stated his position regarding the rumors about the DPRK-US summit. Cui Shanji said in a statement on the 4th that the DPRK-US dialogue is only a tool for the US to deal with the political crisis, and North Korea does not need to sit down with the US to hold a face-to-face dialogue.

　　Quan Zhenggen said that the content of this position is very clear. But "some people even interpreted the ridiculous conversation of our first vice minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as "let the message of the United States act first", "a request for concession" and so on."

　　He also emphasized that "this is not the time to intervene", as it is now, will only lead to "deteriorating relations" between North and South Korea.

　　In February 2019, the second summit meeting between North Korea’s top leader Kim Jong Un and US President Trump in Hanoi, Vietnam, ended in vain, and the denuclearization talks on the Korean peninsula stalled. In January 2020, Kim Kye-gwan, an adviser to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of North Korea, stated that unless the United States agreed to all the requests made by North Korea, North Korea would no longer participate in the DPRK-US negotiations.

　　South Korean President Wen Jae-in said earlier that the South Korean side will go all out to strive for another face-to-face dialogue between the DPRK and the US before the US election. In addition, the South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced on July 6 that Stephen Biegan, US Deputy Secretary of State and Special Representative for North Korean Policy, will visit South Korea from the 7th for a period of three days.
