North Korea has no interest in conducting talks as long as "military threats" by the U.S. and South Korea continue, the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said in a statement released Thursday morning.
The statement, delivered by a spokesperson for the DPRK foreign ministry, condemned recent joint ROK-U.S. military drills, as well as Seoul's acquisition of new stealth fighter jets and Sunday's cruise missile flight test by the U.S., as "dangerous and unusual military moves."
