Bloomberg

President Joe Biden’s envoy for North Korea reiterated the US is ready for dialog without preconditions, urging the country to respond to its offers, Yonhap reported.
The US has made it clear it has no hostile intention at all, Yonhap said, citing US Special Representative for North Korea Sung Kim. He spoke after meeting South Korea’s Special
Representative for Korean Peninsula Peace and Security Affairs Noh Kyu-duk on Sunday.
The US hopes to keep cooperating with South Korea in seeking various ideas and initiatives, including the declaration of the end of the war on the Korean peninsula, the report quoted Kim as saying.
Last week, the US condemned North Korea for firing a ballistic missile from a submarine. The latest launch follows a series of tests in September of weapons capable of delivering nuclear warheads to South Korea and Japan.
