TEHRAN, Jun 5 - Pyongyang has once again urged Washington to reflect upon the "correct strategic choice" to resume talks before its patience wears down.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - "The US would be well-advised to change its current method of calculation and respond to our request as soon as possible. There is a limit to our patience," A spokesperson for North Korea's foreign ministry said in a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on Tuesday.
It has urged the US to "drop its current way of calculation to keep alive the agreement they reached during their first summit in June last year."
"Whether the June 12 DPRK-US Joint Statement will remain effective or turn out to be a mere blank sheet of paper will now be determined by how the US would respond to our fair and reasonable stand," the statement added.
"The US should duly look back on the past one year and cogitate about which will be a correct strategic choice before it is too late. The US would be well-advised to change its current method of calculation and respond to our request as soon as possible," he added.
On Feb 28, the White House said US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un could not reach an agreement during their extensive talks.
Speaking at a televised press conference in Hanoi, Vietnam, Trump has admitted that he did not reach an agreement with Kim Jong-Un, on the subject of denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
In late 2017, both were exchanging threats, with Trump calling Kim 'little rocket man' and Kim calling Trump a 'mentally deranged dotard'.
