North Korea said nuclear talks with the United States broke down again after the two sides met in Stockholm, Sweden, on Saturday in an attempt to revive negotiations after months of stalemate. Pyongyang's chief negotiator, Kim Myong Gil, blamed the U.S. for being inflexible and said that Washington would not "give up their old viewpoint and attitude."
The U.S. did not agree with North Korea's sentiment, however, and even accepted Sweden's invitation to return to Stockholm in two weeks for another round of talks, Reuters reports. "The U.S. brought creative ideas and had good discussions with its DPRK counterparts," State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus said in a statement. "The United States and the DPRK will not overcome a legacy of 70 years of war and hostility on the Korean peninsula through the course of a single Saturday."
The Swedish foreign office reportedly declined to say whether Pyongyang had accepted their invitation to return for more talks, so despite North Korea's rhetoric, there is apparently still a chance they'll return to the table. But Van Jackson, a former Pentagon official who now lectures at New Zealand's Victoria University of Wellington, told The Washington Post that North Korea is likely to boycott more working-level meetings like the one on Saturday in favor of another major summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and President Trump.
