Washington/Sputnik: The Trump administration would be deeply disappointed if North Korean leader Kim Jong Un broke his promise to halt nuclear testing, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in an interview.

Earlier, Kim said Pyongyang will unveil a new strategic weapon in the near future if the United States continues its hostile policies, Yonhap News Agency reported citing North Korean state-run KCNA.

"If Chairman Kim has reneged on the commitments he made to President Trump that is deeply disappointing," Pompeo told CBS News on Tuesday. "We’ve lived up to our commitments. We continue to hold out hope that he [Kim] will live up to his as well."
