Kim Jong Un: North Korea must prepare for dialogue but also for conflict with US

The North Korean leader sends his own message to America. THE Kim Jong Un, assessed that his country is obliged to prepare both “for dialogue” and “for conflict” with the US during the presidency of Joe Biden.

The head of state “underlined the need to prepare for both dialogue and conflict, in particular to be fully prepared for conflict “, during his speech on the strategy against Washington at a meeting of the plenary session of the Central Committee of the party, according to the North Korean news agency KCNA.

Joe Biden, who Pyongyang alleges that he is pursuing a “hostile policy” towards her, does not rule out the possibility of one day meeting with Kim Jong Un, but emphasizes that he will not do so unless there have been clear commitments from him before.

Negotiations between the US government and that of North Korea have been virtually suspended after the failure of the second summit of Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un in Hanoi in 2019.

The North Korean leader “called for a strong and rapid response in the face of a rapidly evolving situation” and “efforts to focus on stable control of the situation on the Korean Peninsula,” according to KCNA and the Athens News Agency.

In May, Mr. Biden has criticized the approach of his Republican predecessor; Mr. Trump had met with “President Kim” twice, in Singapore and Hanoi, to no avail. “I will not offer him international recognition” without tangible consideration, he insisted.

He also said he had no “illusions” about the difficulty of persuading North Korea to abandon its nuclear arsenal. He made the remarks during a meeting with South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the White House.

“We have no illusions about the difficulty, absolutely none. The four previous governments did not achieve the goal. “This is an incredibly difficult task,” he told the press, announcing the appointment of experienced diplomat Sang Kim to the post of special envoy for North Korea.
