SEOUL: New activities have been detected at a North Korean intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) plant, South Korean media said on Thursday ...

last week in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi over differences on how far North Korea was willing to limit its nuclear program and the degree of US willingness to ease sanctions.

North Korea began work to dismantle a missile engine test stand at Sohae last year in line with Kim' pledge made at his first summit with Trump in June in Singapore. "We have a very nasty problem there. We have to solve a problem," Trump said, while adding in apparent reference to Kim:"The relationship is good."

"But we don't draw any conclusions from that besides they are restoring the facility. There is no evidence to suggest anything more than that," Joel Wit of 38 North told Reuters. A 78-minute documentary aired by North Korea's state television on late Wednesday showed a stone-faced Bolton during an expanded meeting in Hanoi, while Trump and other US participants were all smiles.

The US government source, who did not want to be identified, said North Korea's plan in rebuilding at the site could have been to conspicuously stop again as a demonstration of good faith if a summit agreement was struck, while the work would represent a sign of defiance or resolve if the meeting failed.
