North Korea said Tuesday it has agreed to continue working with the United States to resolve a stalemate in international nuclear negotiations over the North's promise to fully declare its weapons programs.
The communist country's official Korean Central News Agency said the two sides held "an in-depth discussion on the differences" during one-on-one meetings last week in Switzerland over a disarmament-for-aid agreement reached last year.
The two countries agreed to "sit face-to-face with each other and continue the discussion" to find a solution to the impasse, which is holding up the nuclear deal, the North Korean news agency said in a three-sentence dispatch, the first time it has mentioned the Geneva talks.
The report gave no details of what was discussed or when the two sides would meet again.
