North Korea Can Talk to US if It Stops Insisting on Denuclearization, Kim Says

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has stated that North Korea could resume talks with the United States if Washington abandons its insistence on denuclearization. Kim recalled fond memories of the Trump administration, suggesting a potential willingness to engage in dialogue under different terms.

In a recent statement, Kim emphasized that the continuous demand for denuclearization has been a significant barrier to negotiations. He implied that a more flexible approach from the US could open the door to renewed discussions.

This announcement came during a meeting of the Supreme People’s Assembly held at the Mansudae Assembly Hall in Pyongyang, North Korea. The event was captured in a photo released on September 22, 2025, by North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).
