Pompeo clears the air: No sanctions relief for North Korea until 'complete, verifiable, irreversible denuclearization'

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo held a press conference with his Japanese and South Korean counterparts Thursday morning in Singapore to elaborate on the post Trump-Kim summit strategy for denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula.

Pompeo called the Singapore meetings between President Trump and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un an enormous opportunity and turning point for advancing North Korea’s relations with the U.S., its neighbors in Asia, and the rest of the global community.
