Update at 6:21 PM KST: This article incorrectly quoted Daniel Pinkston. This error has now been amended. U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Monday said Washington could negotiate with North Korea if it ceased missile testing, in a speech at the ASEAN regional forum in Manilla. The remarks follow a round of strict UN sanctions passed on Saturday in response to two intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) tests by North Korea in July. “When the conditions are right, then we can sit and have a dialogue around the future of North Korea so they feel secure and prosper economically,” Tillerson told © Korea Risk Group.
