Kim says N. Korea's ties with US depend on Washington

 North Korean leader Kim Jong-un said the trajectory of his country's ties with the United States hinges entirely on Washington's attitude, according to KCNA.

Kim noted that he sees "no reason" why Pyongyang couldn't get along with Washington if the US drops its hostile policy towards North Korea and shows respect for the Asian nation's current status. At the same time, he dismissed any possibility of dialogue with South Korea, describing the country as Pyongyang's "most hostile enemy."

"It is our party's firm and unwavering will to further strengthen state nuclear forces and thoroughly exercise nuclear-armed state status," Kim added as he wrapped up the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK).
