North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said he is hoping to dramatically improve his country’s standing with the world as the Hermit Kingdom enters 2021 with an economy fractured by sanctions, natural disasters and coronavirus-related border closings. 

North Korea has likely developed a mini nuclear device that could fit into the warheads of its ballistic missile, a new United Nations report suggests. 

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo indicated that President Trump has little interest in holding a summit with North Korea’s Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.

The top U.S. official on North Korea accused a senior North Korean nuclear negotiator on Wednesday of being “locked in an old way of thinking,” days after the negotiator said Pyongyang won't resume talks with Washington because of its “hostile” policies.

An American envoy has landed in South Korea Tuesday for discussions on stalled nuclear diplomacy hours after the North issued a statement vowing it has “no intention to sit face to face with the U.S.” 

"Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace told "Outnumbered Overtime" Thursday that the claims made about President Trump in former national security adviser John Bolton's forthcoming tell-all memoir are unlikely to have much impact on his political fortunes ahead of the November general election. 

North Korea is marking the two-year anniversary of the first summit between Kim Jong Un and President Trump by vowing to build up its armed forces so it can “cope with the long-term military threats from the U.S.” 

North Korea on Saturday said that a Happy Birthday greeting from President Trump was not enough to bring Pyongyang back to the negotiating table -- saying that a good relationship between Trump and dictator Kim Jong Un was just “personal.”

North Korea, most likely thinking it can apply pressure on the Trump administration at a time when it is facing impeachment, is making a grave mistake.

Kim has repeatedly declared a year-end deadline for progress on stalled talks with the U.S. And the end of the year is approaching fast.
