WASHINGTON: US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has shelved plans to meet this week with senior North Korean officials, including one of leader Kim Jong Un’s top aides, the State Department said Tuesday.
The US chief diplomat’s meeting with Kim Yong Chol and other senior officials, which had been due to take place in New York on Thursday, “will now take place at a later date,” said a statement.
“We will reconvene when our respective schedules permit,” it added.
