North Korean FM says Pyongyang asked for “partial” sanctions relief

Ri Yong Ho says North Korean proposal "will never be changed"

Correction at 1410 EST: An earlier version of this article did not include the specific quote pertaining to what North Korea offered the U.S. for sanctions relief. This has been amended.
