PYEONGCHANG (SOUTH KOREA) (AFP) - The US warned Pyongyang of "maximum
pressure" towards denuclearisation on Saturday as Ivanka Trump kicked
off a visit to the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics -- where she looks likely
to avoid North Korean officials. After President Donald Trump unveiled
the "heaviest sanctions ever" on North Korea, the White House
spokeswoman said his daughter Ivanka would probably sit apart from the
North Korean delegation at Sunday's closing ceremony. Sarah Sanders said
the president wouldn't be "soft or weak" on Pyongyang, despite an
apparent Korean detente as the North takes part in the Winter Games,
just 30 miles (50 kilometres) from the peninsula's heavily armed border.
