NORTH Korea's been playing hard to get, its vice-minister confirmed - saying the country has been intentionally dodging the Biden Administration's calls and even e-mails asking for a sit-down between the two countries.
"The U.S. has tried to contact us since mid-February through several routes including New York," North Korean First Vice Minister Choe Son Hui said in a statement on Wednesday.
"It recently requested to contact us by sending e-mails and telephone messages via various routes," she continued in the statement released by the official Korean Central News Agency.
"Even in the evening before the joint military drill it sent a message imploring us to respond to its request through a third country."
"But we don't think there is need to respond to the U.S. delaying-time trick again," Choe added.
"We have already declared our stand that no DPRK-U.S. contact and dialogue of any kind can be possible unless the U.S. rolls back its hostile policy towards the DPRK," her statement concluded.
"Therefore, we will disregard such an attempt of the U.S. in the future, too."
The statement comes just a day after North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's sister told the US to avoid "causing a stink" if it wants peace.
"We take this opportunity to warn the new U.S. administration trying hard to give off powder smell in our land," said the North Korean dictator's sister Kim Yo Jong on Tuesday.
The vice minister's admission is nothing new for the Biden Administration, with senior officials arriving in the region this week to meet with top diplomats in Seoul.
The isolationist country has explained its game of telephone tag by dismissing the Biden administration's advances as pointless unless the new White House occupant planned a significant policy shift.
Choe added that the only way there would be an open conversation between the two countries is if there was an established "atmosphere for both parties to exchange words on an equal basis."
She then called Biden's administration a "regime" for creating "lunatic theory of 'threat from North Korea' and groundless rhetoric about 'complete denuclearization.'"
My thoughts, too. The “we’re back” ain’t going so well.
Biden has been trying to sell extended warranties again.
“Don’t call us....we’ll call you!”
A doddering old fool and a gang of sex perverts and various criminal thugs. That’s all the Biden administration is.
Trivia:
Phone number being dialed in that song is the White House phone number!................
I remember reading that somewhere.
I got it from one of the band members................
Kim sends his little sister out to insult Biden
Well played, Rocketman
There’s an old saying that “if they don’t respect us then they better by God fear us.” With Biden we get neither.
Gee... Yet another object of proof that Orange Man might not have been so bad after all...
Kim Jong Uncola actually *respected* The Donald.
Remember when Trump first took office and the press went crazy because Trump was trying to make peace with North Korea and that it was going to lead to a nuclear war?!
Where are those people at now? Relations between NK and Russia are SUPER deteriorating and the press says... NOTHING.
I know why obviously - but still, the sheer hypocrisy is jaw dropping.
Well, at least we are still maintaining good relations with Vladimir Putin ...
Wait, what?
I think all of the world leaders are now realizing that Trump is no longer president and there is no chance of him being installed in this term. Now each leader is waiting for the other to make the first moves against Joseph Stolen and now the dam will break and we will be awash in terrible and awful “leadership”
57 days of BiDumb and America’s foreign policy is in a shambles................
Trump talked to the guy as Alpha Male to Insecure-pretending-to-be-Alpha-male. The jerk didn’t bomb us or any other country. He know Trump would turn NK to a molten mass.
The fools who created the “doomsday clock” pushed the hands to midnight - 1, signifying that Trump was leading us into war.
Demonstrations accused Trump of being a warmonger.
One finger Joe has already angered NK and Russia. But he has bowed down to kiss the shadow of china and is giving them their wishes in return for getting him elected.
Will gropey joe be nominated for the nobel peace prize? If bammy got the prize for hating America, then nuzzling joe deserves it too.
Actually there’s two different numbers in the song;
snip -
“The song includes the sound of a touch-tone telephone number being dialed near the beginning and ending of the song. Those numbers were an unlisted phone number at CBS Records in Manhattan (”area code 212” stated in the song), and the number of the White House switchboard (in the similar-sounding area code 202).”

It’s only a matter of time before one of the foreign countries intel groups releases or threatens to release e-mails, phone messages or VIDEOS recorded that will cause Biden to resign in disgrace..............
Kim Jong Uncola actually *respected* The Donald.
Tyrant like Kim only respect leaders who they think are tougher then they are.
Trump sent signals early on that he had absolutely no problem Nuking Kim, remember Kim called Trump a “doltard” and months later they agreed to meet for the first time ever.
Kim didn’t want to respect Trump, he had to respect Trump because he quickly learned that Trump could end him and his little regime in minutes.
Now he is back to business as usually since he has zero respect (fear) of Biden
