North Korea threatens to pull out of U.S. summit; cancels talks with South - UPI.com
UPI reports: "North Korea said Wednesday it is canceling high-level talks with South
Korea and threatened to pull out of a summit with the United States over
the allies' ongoing military exercises.
The North's Korean Central News Agency said the Max Thunder drills
between the South Korean and U.S. air forces are a rehearsal for
invasion of the North and a provocation amid warming inter-Korean ties.
It also called into question whether next month's summit between North
Korean leader Kim Jong-un and U.S. President Donald Trump can go ahead
as planned."
Comment: I suspect this is just posturing, a transparent attempt to gain leverage for a country without many cards to play.
