THREATS FROM NORTH KOREA: North Korea wanted peace talks before missile


According to a US official, they've received a North Korean proposal for peace talks to formally end the Korean War before Pyongyang's recent nuclear test on January 6th, but the two sides failed to start the negotiations and the North went with its test. The official said that after considering the North's proposal, the Obama administration asked the North to include denuclearization as part of the talks but NoKor rejected the call.

The North Korea repeatedly asked the USA to end its hostile policy and conclude a peace treaty with the North while the United States maintained that they will not start any dialogues until the North takes serious steps to curtail its nuclear programs
