Kim Jong-un respected the unfolding of year 107 on the North Korean timetable with the stark cautioning that he won't be compelled into surrendering his atomic weapons and long-run rockets - yet additionally offered an olive branch to South Korea.
The double informing rings with what experts accept is a technique to build up a progressed atomic capacity before entering any arrangements about the fate of nuclear weapons on the Korean promontory.
So while he asserted to have an atomic catch around his work area he additionally said the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics offered an open door for better relations with South Korea.
"We will make different strides, including the dispatch of the appointment," he said.
"To this end, the two Koreas can promptly meet".
The offer was tempered by the North Korean despot's request that he has no expectation of downsizing the generation and sending of atomic warheads and ballistic rockets.
"We ought to dependably keep availability to take prompt atomic counter-assaults against the adversary's plan for an atomic war," Yonhap news cited Mr Kim as saying. "The US ought to know that the North's atomic powers is reality, not a danger."
The proposition for converses with Seoul was by and by to a great extent sudden, given that Pyongyang has studiously disregarded each approach by Moon Jae-in's organization since he was confirmed as South Korean president in May.
Be that as it may, examiners bring up that the offer is all the more a figured push to drive a wedge between Mr Moon's liberal government in Seoul and Washington's hardline way to deal with North Korea under President Donald Trump.
"I don't trust this is an olive branch by any stretch of the imagination", said Rah Jong-yil, a previous representative and head of South Korean insight.
"In the event that discussions do proceed, at that point I anticipate that North Korea will request that joint US-South Korean military activities that are booked to occur in the meantime as the Winter Games be postponed or even scratched off altogether."
The South Korean individuals - edgy for a quiet answer for a circumstance that has dominated their lives since the Korean War softened out up 1950 - are probably going to help that demand, he included. Washington, in any case, is probably not going to need to be viewed as making security concessions toward the North to no end consequently.
"North Korea has nothing to lose with this offer of talks", said Mr Rah, and is in a position to make itself into the wronged party - a country hoping to partake in a tranquil worldwide occasion yet unfit to do as such on the grounds that it feels undermined.
In truth, Mr Rah stated, the exact opposite thing that Mr Kim needs is peace. "North Korea can't survive peace", he said.
"The administration in Pyongyang can just keep on surviving on stresses and encounter with its neighbors. Peace would cut Mr Kim down.
"In that sense, President Trump is useful for the North", he included. "Every one of the dangers to assault North Korea essentially strengthen Mr Kim's message to the general population that the US needs to pulverize them and, subsequently, his control over them".
