US Deputy Secretary of State Stephen Biegun arrived in South Korea on Tuesday in an effort to renew stalled nuclear talks with Pyongyang.
North Korea had issued a statement hours beforw the visit saying it has no intention of sitting down with the United States and told Seoul to “stop meddling.”
Biegun has led working-level talks with the North Koreans. The envoy is due to meet South Korean officials on Wednesday and Thursday.
Pyongyang said on Saturday it did not feel the need for a new summit with Washington, days after South Korean President Moon Jae-in suggested the leaders of the US and North Korea meet again before the US elections in November, Reuters reports.
