NORTH KOREA SNUBS SOUTH KOREA BID FOR MILITARY TALKS:

South Korea’s proposed military talks aimed at easing tension between the two Koreas planned for Friday failed to happen after the North snubbed the call, a setback for new President Moon Jae-in’s hopes for dialogue.

The North has remained silent on the South Korean proposal, made on Monday, for talks on ways to avoid hostilities along their heavily fortified border.

Moon took office in May pledging to engage the North in dialogue, as well as to bring pressure on it to impede its nuclear and missile programs.

The fat kid running North Korea continues to believe he can win the Korean War.

President Moon needs to consider some other policy options.
