北당대회 - 美 '북핵 불용' 재확인…비핵화 압박속 제재강화 모색 The United States has once again demanded that North Korea completely abandon its nuclear ambitions. A spokesman for the U.S. State Department on Sunday urged Pyongyang to stick to its international obligation to denuclearize, and stressed the UN Security Council's resolution clearly states that North Korea shall end its nuclear program in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner. The remark comes in response to Kim Jong-un's announcement at the North's Workers' Party congress that the regime will not use nuclear weapons unless its sovereignty is violated. Diplomatic sources say Washington shares the same stance as Seoul, considering Kim's announcement as a clear signal North Korea has no plans to give up its nuclear weapons program.
