The foreign ministers of Japan, the United States and South Korea on Wednesday affirmed close coordination in an effort to achieve the complete denuclearization of North Korea, the Japanese Foreign Ministry said.
In a meeting in London, Foreign Minister Toshimitsu Motegi, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken and South Korean Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong agreed to push North Korea to comply with its obligations under U.N. Security Council resolutions over its nuclear and missile programs, the ministry said.
It marked the first such gathering since the launch in January of U.S. President Joe Biden's administration, which recently completed its policy review on North Korea.
