The Korea Times is reporting that the US is not planning to send Secretary Rice to North Korea.
Washington denied Tuesday a news report that North Korea has invited U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to Pyongyang for discussions on the deepening dispute over its nuclear weapons programs.
No invitation has been received for Rice to visit the reclusive communist country for bilateral talks, an unidentified official at the State Department in Washington said.
The official was responding to a report by a Japanese business daily that North Korea has asked China to arrange a visit by the U.S. state secretary.
I don’t see this happening unless Pyongyang makes a lot of concessions in return. Especially after she called North Korea an “Outpost of Tyranny”. I would be surprised if they would want to have such a anti-North Korean figure traveling to their country. Plus I would think Secretary Rice has more important things to do then listen to demands from the Norks for food and money. I bet she in content to let the South Koreans listen to all the whining for now. I don’t see her getting involved unless a concrete deal has been reached.
