North Korea Canceled a meeting With Mike Pence at the Last Minute

Washington, Feb 21 United States Vice-President Mike Pence was scheduled to meet with the North Korean appointment during his visit to Pyeongchang for going to the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics prior this month, yet North Korea cancelled the meeting at last, Pence's Vice-President Office said on Tuesday.

As indicated by the Washington Post, Pence and his associates should meet with North Korean pioneer Kim Jong-un's sister, Kim Yo-jong, and North Korea's stylized head of state, Kim Yong-nam. In any case, the North Koreans assembled off the conference before it was set to take place due to unknown reasons.

The development closes the speculations when Pence did not meet with Yong-nam and Yo-jong in Pyeongchang, despite the fact that he was seated close the North Korean assignment.

"North Korea dangled a meeting in hopes of the Vice President softening his message, which would have surrendered the world stage for their propaganda during the Olympics," Nick Ayers, Pence's head of staff, said in an announcement.

The meeting was in the pipeline for a long time and was booked before Pence left for his two-country trip through Asia on prior this month. Pence was relied upon to utilize the gathering to "vocalize" the Trump organization's position against North Korea, particularly on the persevering ballistic missile tests.

Pence was driving the US delegation in the Pyeongchang Winter Games.

Prior, the US Vice President cautioned that Washington was intending to force the "hardest and most aggressive" approvals against Pyongyang.

Be that as it may, North Korea reportedly questioned Pence's announcement of the sanctions, and also his gathering with North Korean deserters at the White House a month ago. The gathering was led by the US President Donald Trump.

The US and North Korea have long been engaged in back-and-forth barbs over the latter's threat of an nuclear attack, as far back as Trump assumed control as the US President a year ago.

Trump undermined to rain "fire and fury" on North Korea and also called Kim Jong-un as a "Little Rocket Man", while North Korea denounced Trump as a "mentally deranged" US dotard.
