U US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo returns to North Korea this week. "To continue the important and ongoing work of denuclearization of the Korean peninsula", Pompeo will leave Thursday in North Korea, announced Monday the American spokeswoman Sarah Sanders. Direct talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un are also planned

Kim agreed to complete nuclear disarmament in Singapore at the historic summit with US President Donald Trump on June 12 in Singapore. However, no more precise definition, timing or control measures have been mentioned, which is why the agreement is widely criticized as being too vague.

According to media reports, Pyongyang is secretly pursuing its nuclear weapons program despite its confession at the Singapore summit, Sanders did not want to confirm or deny it on Monday. She simply pointed out that there had been no North Korean missile test and no "atomic detonation" in recent months. Talks continued, progress has been made, she said. After his visit to North Korea, Pompeo will continue to visit Japan, Vietnam, the United Arab Emirates and the NATO summit in Brussels, according to the US State Department. Pompeo had traveled to North Korea several times in recent months.
