Moon: threshold for consultation with N-Korea down

The United States should weaken their conditions for bilateral consultations with North Korea.

The US has previously indicated that consultation with the Kim Jong-un regime should lead to the termination of the North Korean nuclear program. 'The United States must lower the bar,' said Moon according to news agency Yonhap. 'That's important because the US and North Korea can sit around the table. '

The North Korean nuclear weapons program has greatly increased the tension between Washington and Pyongyang. Dictator Kim warned during his New Year's speech that the United States is within reach of its nuclear weapons arsenal. President Donald Trump reacted furiously.
