North Korea Offers Talks with U.S. 
-----------------------------------


 
North Korea is offering negotiations with the U.S. after months of
tensions. On Sunday, the North Korean regime proposed high-level talks
at a date and venue of Washington's choice. The proposal reaffirms North
Korea's longstanding call to tie any reduction of its nuclear arsenal
with broader regional denuclearization, including by the United States.
It comes on the heels of multiple North Korean threats to launch attacks
on the U.S. as the U.S. conducted war games with South Korea.
