SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea signaled Wednesday it remains open to suspending uranium enrichment in exchange for U.S. food aid.
The North’s statement offers a look at how the government now led by Kim Jong Un will handle two pressing issues: a long-running food crisis and pressure to end its nuclear program.
“The North is saying it is willing to go ahead with nuclear steps if it gets the food aid it wants,” said Koh Yu-hwan, a university professor.
