North Korean leader willing to restore hotlines with South Korea

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said he is willing to restore severed inter-Korean hotlines next month, but accused the United States of proposing talks without changing its "hostile policy" to the country, Reuters reported, citing North Korea’s official KCNA news agency.

Kim made the remarks at the country's parliament, the Supreme People's Assembly, which gathered for a second day to discuss the country's political, economic and social agenda.
