North Korea Rejects Trump’s Overtures To Meet Kim Jong Un, Terms It ‘Propaganda’ For Presidential Elections

Donald Trump’s proposal to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was termed a “kind of propaganda or advertisement” by a senior North Korean official Monday.

The U.S. Republican presidential candidate had mentioned his willingness to talk to the North Korean leader to try to stop Pyongyang's nuclear program, in an interview with Reuters in New York last week. The proposal would have marked a major shift in U.S. policy toward the isolated nation.
