Nuclear North Korea is non-negotiable, diplomat says
A North Korea diplomat has said the country's ballistic nuclear weapons programme is non-negotiable.
Choe Son-hui said the US should "be prepared to co-exist with" a nuclear North Korea.
She said it was "the only way to secure lasting peace on the Korean peninsula".
CIA director Mike Pompeo earlier warned that North Korea would probably be able to hit the US with a nuclear missile within months. North Korea claims it already has the capability.
Mr Pompeo stressed that Washington still preferred diplomacy and sanctions but said force remained an option for the US.
