The Republican Presidential, Donald Trump had proposed that he
meet the North Korea leader Kim Jong-un - but this has been dismissed as a
"kind of propaganda or advertisement" in his election race by a senior
North Korean official.
"It is up to the decision of my Supreme Leader whether he
decides to meet or not, but I think [Trump's] idea or talk is nonsense,"
So Se Pyong, North Korea's ambassador to the United Nations in Geneva, told Reuters.
"It's for utilisation of the presidential election, that's
all. A kind of a propaganda or advertisement," he said.
"This is
useless, just a gesture for the presidential election."
"There is no meaning, no sincerity," So added.
The two countries have not engaged since 2012, when North
Korea promised to stop testing nuclear devices in return for food aid,
but talks were disbanded.
