A senior U.S. official said North Korea wanted sanctions that impede the civilian economy and the people's livelihoods lifted — but not those on armaments.
Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.HANOI, Vietnam — President Donald Trump said he walked away from his second summit with Kim Jong Un because the North Korean leader demanded the U.S. lift all of its sanctions, a claim that Kim's delegation called a rare news conference in the middle of the night to deny.
. Trump spoke with reporters soon after the talks broke down and said the dispute over sanctions was the deal breaker. But he acknowledged the North's demand was only for Washington to back the lifting of United Nations Security Council sanctions imposed since March 2016 and didn't include the other resolutions going back a decade more.What Pyongyang was seeking, he said, was the lifting of sanctions that impede the civilian economy and the people's livelihood — as Ri had claimed.
But Kim wasn't looking for the lifting of sanctions on armaments. Those were imposed earlier, from 2006, when the North conducted its first nuclear test.While it claims that its nuclear weapons are needed for self-defense, it was offering to at least for the time being accept sanctions directly related to nuclear weapons and missile technology.
