SEOUL/WASHINGTON -- As speculation swirls around renewing a nuclear dialogue between the U.S. and North Korea, Pyongyang has upped the ante by signaling it will not return to the negotiating table without concessions from Washington.
"We are not considering even the possibility of any contact with the U.S., let alone having it, which would get us nowhere, only taking up precious time," North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Son Gwon said in a statement issued Wednesday.
