The new Joe Biden administration may use a two-track approach to deal with the nuclear standoff with North Korea, offering either incentives or sanctions depending on which stance the North takes, diplomatic analysts said.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken gave his first TV interview since taking office and there was very little mention of North Korea. But experts are taking note of the fact that the new top U.S. diplomat mentioned both additional sanctions and diplomatic incentives when talking about the next steps the Biden administration will take with North Korea.
