North Korea will not give up its nuclear weapons but international sanctions may force it to negotiate, said Pyongyang’s former envoy to Kuwait, who defected to Seoul secretly 16 months ago.
North Korea's former acting ambassador to Kuwait has been living in South Korea since defecting in 2019, according to multiple sources on Monday.
South Korea’s Ministry of Unification on Monday said it slammed the brakes on a plan to exchange goods with the North after a North Korean company involved in the process was found to have been flagged under international sanctions.
