North Korea has again threatened to back away from a planned summit between Kim Jong Un and President Donald Trump unless the United States stops committing “unlawful and outrageous acts.”“Whether they will meet us at a meeting room or encounter us at nuclear-to-nuclear showdown is entirely dependent upon the decision and behavior of the United States,” North Korea’s vice foreign minister, Choe Son-hui, said, according to South Korea’s Yonhap News AgencyIn the event”the U.S. offends against our goodwill and clings to unlawful and outrageous acts,” Choe said she’d suggest to Kim to reconsider the summit. The threat came after Trump met with South Korean President Moon Jae-in at the White House. On Tuesday, President Trump suggested that the summit planned for June 12 in Singapore will not take place. North Korea reportedly also called Mike Pence, the U.S. Vice President, ignorant over his comments on Libya.
