NEW YORK, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News / WAM - 20th Sep, 2018) The foreign ministers of the United States and North Korea will meet in New York next week, according to a media report.
The US has said that it is ready to resume talks with North Korea, after Pyongyang pledged on Wednesday to dismantle its key missile facilities and suggested it would close its main Yongbyon nuclear complex if Washington took unspecified actions, Reuters has reported.
US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has invited North Korea's Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho to meet in New York next week, with the aim of completing its denuclearisation by January 2021, after a Pyongyang summit between the leaders of the two Koreas.
In addition to inviting North Korean Foreign Minister to meet when both are in New York next week for the annual UN General Assembly gathering of world leaders, Pompeo said Washington invited Pyongyang's representatives to meet the US special representative for North Korea, Stephen Biegun, in Vienna at the "earliest opportunity."
