North Korea is no longer interested in holding a 'fruitless' summit with the U.S., according to a statement released to state media: 'We will not give the U.S. president anything to boast of without getting anything in return.'

Pyongyang hit back hard in response to President Donald Trump's recent tweet suggesting another summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

"We will not give the U.S. president anything to boast of without getting anything in return," Kim said in the statement."We need to get the fair price for what President Trump has boasted as his achievements." Mr. Chairman, Joe Biden may be Sleepy and Very Slow, but he is not a"rabid dog." He is actually somewhat better than that, but I am the only one who can get you where you have to be. You should act quickly, get the deal done. See you soon! https://t.co/kO2k14lTf7

The foreign ministry adviser, who was formerly the communist regime's envoy, explained in the statement that he interpreted Trump's words on Twitter as implying a new U.S.-DPRK summit talk.
