Pompeo to journey to North Korea with new special envoy

U.S. Secretary of state Mike Pompeo will visit North Korea once more next week to try to steer it to abandon its nuclear weapons, and will take a new U.S. special representative, Stephen Biegun, with him in an attempt to interrupt the deadlock.

“We don't have any expectations of meeting with Chairman Kim. That is not part of this trip,” Nauert told a regular news briefing.
