Secretary of State Mike Pompeo dismissed a sour statement put out by North Korea after his visit to Pyongyang, telling reporters in Tokyo on July 8 that he had “good faith, productive” conversations with his counterparts.
In a statement by an unnamed spokesman on the heels of Pompeo’s two-day visit, North Korea said that Washington’s attitude and stance were “regrettable” and that the United States “came up only with its unilateral and gangster-like demand for denuclearization.”
