North Korea gives Biden's US diplomatic cold shoulder

The White House said it had not received any response to repeated efforts to reach out to Pyongyang. The news comes as Joe Biden has sent his top diplomatic and military representatives to Asia.
 

Unlike the exchanges dictator Kim Jong Un had with the previous White House, Biden's letters have gone unanswered

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki on Monday confirmed the news agency AFP's reports that the Biden administration's outreach efforts toward North Korea have been met with silence. "We have reached out," Psaki said, noting that "diplomacy is always our goal."

AFP had quoted an anonymous senior US official as saying: "We reached out to the North Korean government through several channels starting in mid-February, including in New York. To date, we have not received any response from Pyongyang." The official said the outreach had been made in an effort "to reduce the risks of escalation" in the region.

In less than two months, we've become the laughingstock of the world.

Rep. Boebert observes via Twitter:

Vladimir Putin is basically calling Biden a senile old man, China rebuffed Anthony Blinken to his face & Kim Jong Un refuses to talk to anyone from the Biden regime... but it’s good to know that America is ReSpEcTeD AgAiN.
