NKorea Says It Is Open to New Dialogue on Nukes

NKorea Open to New Dialogue Over Nuclear Tensions in Apparent Call for Direct U.S. Talks

If the U.S. And the norks were to have one on one talks , we will be giving North Korea a few hundred million in aid for it , Just like the deal for the Palestinian authority !abc news
North Korea suggested a new dialogue Monday to resolve tensions over its atomic weapons programs — an apparent invitation to the U.S. to engage in one-on-one talks after Pyongyang bolstered its negotiating power with nuclear and missile tests.

Hours earlier, however, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told Pyongyang to stick to six-nation talks that the North has rejected. Clinton said the multilateral framework is "the appropriate way to engage with North Korea."

Monday's statement from Pyongyang's Foreign Ministry marks a rare expression of willingness to talk by a regime that has escalated tensions with a flurry of provocations in recent months, including a nuclear test and a series of banned missile tests.

It also suggests that the communist regime thinks it has raised its stakes enough, and it's time to negotiate.
