DPRK: No talks until US drops hostile policy

The chief nuclear negotiator of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea said on Tuesday that dialogue between Pyongyang and Washington is "impossible" unless the United States makes a bold decision and drops its hostile policy against the DPRK.

Kim Myong-gil made the remarks in an interview with the state's Korean Central News Agency, adding that the DPRK has "already reiterated its stance for many times".

Kim's interview counts as the fourth instance within 24 hours that the DPRK sought to exert pressure on the US.
