The U.S. will talk to North Korea but only under the right conditions, U.S. President Donald Trump told a gathering of state governors at the White House on Monday.
The comments are Trump's first since Kim Yong Chol - a senior North Korean official - reportedly communicated Pyongyang's willingness to hold talks with Washington. Kim serves as vice-chairman of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea (WPK) and director of the United Front Department of the WPK Central Committee.
