Sanctions Call
U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis spoke concerning the North Korean sanctions after Trumps meeting with Yong-chol.
“We can anticipate, at best, a bumpy road to the (negotiations),” Mattis said. “We will continue to implement all U.N Security Council resolutions on North Korea. North Korea will receive relief only when it demonstrates verifiable and irreversible steps to denuclearization.”
Japan shared their views as well regarding the situation with its neighboring Country.
“Japan, Korea and the U.S. continue to agree that pressure is needed to be applied on North Korea,” said Itsunori Onodera, Japan’s Defense Minister.
This seemed to signal that all that the U.S. hoped to accomplish won’t come overnight if in any hurry.
That was the hope but it seemed that a peace treaty between the two Korean Nations was the main goal at present.
