Seoul / Pyongyang (dpa) – US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo traveled to Pyongyang on Friday to discuss the removal of the North Korean nuclear program.
He is eager to continue his meetings with the North Korean leadership, Pompeo wrote on the Twitter short message service before his arrival in Pyongyang. "We have a lot of work ahead of us, but peace is worth it."
Talks are over three weeks after US President Donald Trump's historic summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore. Washington hopes to agree with communist leaders on a detailed method and timetable for nuclear disarmament. At first we do not know who will negotiate Pompeo North Korea .
Recent doubts about the seriousness of Pyongyang's disarmament claims have recently arrived in the United States. In the United States, it was learned that North Korea was working on new uranium enrichment activities. The highly enriched uranium can be used for the production of nuclear weapons.
Kim reaffirmed his desire for "complete denuclearization" during the meeting with Trump. However, we still do not know how and when disarmament should take place. Trump had promised North Korea, among other things, "security guarantees".
Pompeo will travel from Pyongyang to Tokyo on Saturday, where he will meet with South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung Wha and his Japanese counterpart Taro Kono on Sunday.
