Seoul may delay N. Korea office plans

South Korea said Monday it may delay the imminent opening of a liaison office in North Korea, after US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's trip to Pyongyang was abruptly cancelled by Donald Trump. Trump on Friday pulled the plug on the visit, blaming a lack of progress in denuclearisation efforts since his historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in June. The sudden cancellation has put the brakes on Seoul's plans to open a liaison office in North Korea following a rapid diplomatic thaw on the Korean peninsula.
