SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korea’s vice foreign minister said on Tuesday the United States will face “undesired consequences” if it fails to present a new position in denuclearization talks by the end of the year, state media reported. North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui singled out Pompeo’s interview last week with CBS in which he said the United States may have to “change paths” if the negotiations break down. “If the United States fails to reestablish its position within the timeline we gave, it will see truly undesired consequences.”She also said North Korea’s determination to denuclearize remained unchanged. It would happen “when the come comes”, but only if the United States changed its current calculations. “We know the path we will take, but we’re just hesitating to choose as we have set the deadline for the United States,” Choe said.
