A senior North Korean official has described comments by US Vice President Mike Pence as 'stupid', leading to fresh doubts about a planned summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.
Choe Son-hui says Mike Pence is a 'political dummy' for comparing North Korea to Libya in terms of its nuclear weapons programme.
She also warned of a 'nuclear showdown' if diplomacy fails.
