Analysis North Korea tests Trump’s will to compromise, dangling a slim path back to talksExperts say Kim Yo Jong’s message sets terms for diplomacy but that abandoning denuclearization likely too far for US

In a statement on Tuesday, the North Korean leader’s powerful sister Kim Yo Jong affirmed Pyongyang’s “irreversible” nuclear status and emphasized that there can be no room for engagement as long as Washington refuses to accept this.
