북한 김정은 국무위원장이 핵 보유국 지위 인정과 대북 적대시 정책 철회를 조건으로 미국과의 대화 가능성을 시사함
한국과 미국이 북한과의 대화를 촉구했으나 북한은 한국을 적대국으로 규정하고 미국과의 대화를 거부했음
한편, 북한은 러시아에게 병력과 무기를 제공하며 러시아와 관계를 강화했으며, 미국과 중국이 갈등하는 가운데 중국과 북한은 더 가까워짐
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has suggested the possibility of dialogue with the United States, contingent on recognition of its nuclear weapons status and the withdrawal of hostile policies toward North Korea.
South Korea and the United States have urged dialogue with North Korea, but North Korea has designated South Korea as an enemy state and refused talks with the United States.
Meanwhile, North Korea has strengthened ties with Russia by providing troops and weapons, while China and North Korea have grown closer amid tensions between the United States and China.
