denuclearization

It wasn't immediately clear what type of weapon was tested early Friday, but South Korea's military noted the missiles traveled at hypersonic speeds and flew about 137 miles.

The test of short-range missiles — one of which may be a new design — is seen as a pressure tactic on Washington as Pyongyang warns against a resumption of U.S.-South Korea military exercises.

The two leaders met Thursday to discuss denuclearization and sanctions. No major agreements came out of the summit, but the two leaders said they were satisfied with the talks.

A source says the president was referring to future penalties, not those imposed Thursday against two Chinese companies for illicit support of North Korea in violation of international sanctions.

Pyongyang blamed U.S. officials for the breakdown in talks in Hanoi last month and said North Korean leader Kim Jong Un will soon decide whether to end his country's voluntary moratorium on testing.

The breakdown in talks between President Trump and North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un may turn out to be a blessing in disguise, writes Gary Samore, an experienced negotiator with North Korea.

Talks between President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ended early Thursday. Trump cited continued sanctions against North Korea as a sticking point.

The U.S. and North Korea will meet in Vietnam, Trump told lawmakers during the State of the Union address. The countries will work toward details of denuclearization missing from last year's meeting.

Kim Jong Un praised Trump's "unusual determination" to come to an agreement. A second summit, expected around late February, could be a chance for the two countries to work out crucial details.
