"I will not talk to the United States for a while."



First Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs of North Korea Choi Sun-hee, who had disappeared from the front of diplomatic relations with the United States for a while, expressed his position on the Biden government.



The United States has been trying to contact us by email and phone notice since last month, but he said there is no need to meet in a situation where hostilities against North Korea are not withdrawn.



It was said that the US must change its attitude and accept new changes in order for dialogue to be possible with North Korea, but the new change seems to mean acknowledging North Korea's possession of nuclear weapons.



It also suggested the possibility of taking action by asking the US to think carefully about what North Korea will do.



[Park Won-Gon/Professor of North Korean Studies at Ewha Womans University: The possibility of (North Korea's) pressure on the US is high, and I think that it could include military measures.]



However, the US attitude of North Korea, which even discussed human rights issues that North Korea is sensitive to, is what North Korea wants. It seems unlikely to change.



In line with the visits of the Secretary of State and Defense, the United States has released more than 10 photographs of the U-2 reconnaissance aircraft on the homepages of the Indo-Pacific Command and the U.S. military base in Osan.



The U-2 aircraft is a reconnaissance reconnaissance that can closely monitor North Korean targets 150 km away from the ceasefire line.



For the time being, it is more likely that there will be North Korean provocations rather than dialogue.



However, rather than completely disappearing the possibility of dialogue, it seems that the character of the initial struggle for a new US-North Korea negotiations.
