“President Trump remains willing to have a dialogue with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un without pre-emptive conditions.”
On September 30, U.S. White House officials made the above statement in response to Yonhap's question on "whether the U.S. government is willing to talk to North Korea without talking about nuclear issues" and reiterated that there has been no change in U.S. policy toward North Korea. It is worth noting that this official did not directly mention the U.S. government's existing principles and goals of "denuclearization of North Korea."
According to the analysis, the White House’s statement is based on considerations for creating an atmosphere for U.S. and DPRK dialogue. That is, while the Trump administration insists on North Korea’s denuclearization policy, this does not mean that only North Korea agrees to include denuclearization as a topic of talks can restart the dialogue between the two sides.
It is believed that the United States has responded to the information released by Kim Jong-un to the United States.
Kim Jong-un, secretary general of the DPRK Labor Party and chief of state, attended the event on 21 and delivered a speech saying that if the United States abandoned its attachment to North Korea's denuclearization and acknowledged the reality and hoped to truly coexist peacefully with North Korea, there is no reason for the DPRK not to communicate with the US side.
Trump will go to South Korea at the end of October to attend the 32nd APEC Leaders 'Informal Meeting. At that time, whether Trump will take this opportunity to meet with Kim Jong Un has attracted much attention.
