North Korea will keep bolstering nuclear force, KCNA says

SEOUL, Feb 18 (Reuters) - North Korea said on Tuesday that it will keep bolstering its nuclear force, state media KCNA said, citing its foreign ministry.

The United States is pursuing an "outdated, absurd" plan of denuclearisation of North Korea, KCNA said in a statement.

The statement referred to U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his South Korean and Japanese counterparts meeting in Germany last week, as well as making a joint statement on their commitment to the complete denuclearisation of North Korea.
