North Korean leader took a major U-turn and said that he will stop conducting missile testing. Kim Jong-Un told his country that he has finished his testing and the nuclear tests will stop ahead of the meeting with President Donald Trump.
"From April 21, North Korea will stop nuclear tests and launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles," KCNA said, according to South Korean news agency Yonhap News.
"The North will shut down a nuclear test site in the country's northern side to prove the vow to suspend nuclear test," Yonhap continued.
Critics warn against celebrating too soon and expecting a peace agreement around the corner.
"They have reached a point in their development cycle/testing sequence that this is probably technologically true," according to MIT associate professor Vipin Narang. "In fact they told us in November already that they had reached completion of their nuclear deterrent."
The story is developing.
