North Korean state media said Washington was carrying out a "hostile policy" that made negotiations difficult.

North Korea's central news agency (KCNA) today published an editorial that rejected the report released by the US State Department last week, which described North Korea as a "terrorist sponsor". "The report once again shows the US hostility to North Korea," KCNA wrote.

Pyongyang asserted that Washington was blocking the development of denuclearization talks. "The dialogue channel between North Korea and the United States is increasingly narrowed by such an attitude," the editorial said.

KCNA's statement came after a South Korean intelligence source said on November 4 that expert-level talks on the nuclear issue between the US and North Korea could be resumed by mid-November or at the latest. is early December.

The "National Report on Terrorism in 2018" published by the US State Department on November 1 continues to accuse the North Korean government of funding terrorism, constantly supporting international terrorist acts, involving foreign assassinations.

Following the collapse of the US-Demin talks in Stockholm, Pyongyang has repeatedly accused Washington of inappropriate and threatening approaches if this does not improve, relations between the two countries "may ends immediately ". Pyongyang has repeatedly tested rockets since the beginning of the year, apparently to "warn" Washington about the weapons they are developing.
