U.S.-North Korea relations

Even though Washington has reached out to Pyongyang with detailed messages through multiple channels, North Korea has not responded.  

The rhetoric is there. But what does it mean?

Signs are emerging of a resumption of a diplomatic activity by Kim Jong Un.

The challenges on the Korean Peninsula have never just been abstract foreign policy issues happening “over there” – they have touched the lives of thousands of American families.

North Korea set an assertive tone for 2021 through its Party Congress.

With Trump leaving the White House, the situation becomes much more complex for Kim Jong Un.

Pyongyang will want to remind the Biden administration that the North is not to be ignored. The region should brace for destabilizing action.

Diplomatic correspondence has always been difficult to read. Here, a translation of what one of Kim's letters might look like in regular parlance.

A veteran North Korean diplomat ruled out the possibility of new talks.

In Pyongyang’s eyes, the racism in America is just more proof of the U.S. “hostile policy.”

The claim followed a statement by President Trump that he had received a “nice” letter from Kim Jong Un.
