North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's sister rebuffs South Korea peace overtures

SEOUL, Aug 14 (Reuters) - The North Korean leader's powerful sister Kim Yo Jong said peace overtures being made by South Korea's new liberal government were "deception" and denied Pyongyang had taken reciprocal action, state news agency KCNA reported on Thursday.

Kim also said North Korea will not be sitting down with the United States for dialogue, saying reports raising the possibilities of such a development were "incorrect speculation," KCNA reported.
