The U.S. is looking forward to rescheduling its high-level talks with North Korea when the time is right.
This is according to State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert on Tuesday.
She added that the meeting is important to Washington, and that they are in regular communication with the North, emphasizing that the two sides remain in contact.
The meeting was supposed to take place in New York last Thursday, between Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and North Korea's vice chairman of the ruling Workers' Party's Central Committee Kim Young-chol.
The two were to discuss North Korea's denuclearization and the planned 2nd Pyeongyang-Washington summit, until the talks were postponed just a day before the meeting, allegedly due to North Korea's request for more time.
