N. Korea warns U.S. again over sanctions pressure

North Korea has warned the U.S. for the second time in a week over international sanctions. The rhetoric is another sign North Korea may be no closer to give up its nuclear weapons despite peace efforts last year.

North Korean state media warned there will be 'consequences' for the U.S. if it continues with pressure and sanctions.

The remarks come less than a week after Kim Jong-un warned in his New Year's address he'll take a different path if Washington sticks with sanctions.

Last year, Kim halted missile tests and promised to give up his nuclear weapons.

But the U.S. doesn't believe North Korea has does enough to warrant any change in its stance.

Still, Washington says it plans to hold a second summit between President Trump and Kim early this year.
