He stressed that Pyongyang never exchanges his nuclear arsenal for the abolition of sanctions. According to him, sanctions became a “lesson” that made the country stronger and more stable.

Literally: “These statements were made against the backdrop of the calls of the new Liberal Government of South Korea to Donald Trump to lead the efforts to restore dialogue with Pyongyan. Peace negotiations came to a dead end six years ago because of differences in sanctions and nuclear disarmament.

South Korea President Lee Zhage Mon, who has joined the post in June, is actively promoting peace initiatives, emphasizing the need for dialogue with Pyongyan. He proposed steps to strengthen the trust and gradually collapse the DPRK nuclear program and stressed that Trump can play a key role in these efforts. ”

At the same time, the North Korean leader expressed “warm memories” about Donald Trump, with whom he met three times during his first presidential term.

Despite the international sanctions and resolutions of the UN Security Council, North Korea continues to succeed in creating nuclear weapons and the latest ballistic missiles. According to the President of South Korea, the sanctions could not restrain Pyongyan, who, according to him, annually adds from 15 to 20 nuclear warheads to his arsenal.

“The reality is that the previous approach, based on sanctions and pressure, did not solve the problem. It aggravated it,” Lee said.
