I appreciated ROK Third Vice Foreign Minister Jeong’s thoughtful insights and our exchange of views on Korean Peninsula issues. As allies, it is crucial to remain closely coordinated in our respective approaches and policies regarding the DPRK.

Pleased to launch U.S.-ROK working group discussions to advance bilateral nuclear cooperation initiatives as outlined by our two presidents last fall. On this occasion, I am reminded of our shared history and the many milestones across 70+ years of our Alliance. I look forward to further deepening and modernizing our cooperation and expect continued progress across the bilateral relationship in the years to come.
