Summary

Seoul, South Korea -- The North Korean regime has suggested it is rethinking whether it should abide by its moratorium on nuclear and missile tests and other steps aimed at improving ties with the U.S. A statement by the Foreign Ministry on Tuesday appeared aimed at applying more pressure on the U.S. as the two countries attempt to resume nuclear diplomacy.The statement said upcoming regular U.S.-South Korean military drills that North Korea views as an invasion rehearsal were forcing it to rethink whether it should remain committed to the promises it made to the U.S.The North said President Trump had vowed to suspend military drills with South Korea during his first and third meetings with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.More in North KoreaThe Foreign Ministry statement called a U.S. decision to go ahead with the war games would be "clearly a violation of the basic spirit" of the agreement between the two countries, and thus North Korea's impetus to adhere to its own pledges was "gradually disappearing."The statement also said Pyongyang was not bound by any legal documents to suspend nuclear and missile tests.Despite an historic and controversial visit paid by President Trump to North Korean territory early this month, during which he met Kim for about 45 minutes, there has been scant indication of any real headway in the diplomatic standoff between the two nations. There still has not been a treaty to officially end that war.Mr. Trump said shortly before he met Kim that it was too soon to know whether he might hold a third formal summit with Kim following an unsuccessful meeting earlier this year in Vietnam. 50 years ago, CBS News anchor Walter Cronkite brought the frontier of outer space to televisions across America 50 years ago, millions of people were glued to their television sets as Apollo 11​ launched to the moon 50 years ago, millions of people were glued to their television sets as Apollo 11​ launched to the moon Also, we're celebrating 50 years since Apollo 11 blasted off to the moon. “I just hope they make it successfully and have no problem,” said a man who’d traveled from California to see Apollo 11 launch to the moon on July 16, 1969.
