In an exclusive interview with Reuters, "as long as there is a continuous hostile policy against my country by the U.S. and as long as there are continued war games at our doorstep, then there will not be negotiations," said Han Tae Song, North Korea’s ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva.
Key quotes (via Reuters)
There are continued military exercises using nuclear assets as well as aircraft carriers, and strategic bombers and then...raising such kinds of military exercises against my country.
The DPRK, my country, will continue to build-up its self-defense capability, the pivot of which is nuclear forces and capability for a triumphant...strike as long as U.S. and hostile forces keep up nuclear threat and blackmail.
Our country plans ultimate completion of the nuclear force.
