TOKYO (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 25th February, 2019) South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha expressed hope on Monday that the upcoming summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and US President Donald Trump will yield tangible and significant results.Trump and Kim are scheduled to meet in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi on February 27-28 for their second summit on denuclearization.
"In just two days, the second US-North Korea summit will be held in Hanoi. We expect this to be another important cornerstone in the ongoing efforts to achieve final denuclearization and permanent peace on the Korean Peninsula. We would like to see tangible and significant results of this meeting," Kang said in Geneva.
After the first summit, held last year in Singapore, the US president said North Korea no longer posed a nuclear threat to the United States. The first US-North Korean summit resulted in an agreement stipulating that Pyongyang would make efforts to promote the complete denuclearization of the peninsula in exchange for the United States and South Korea freezing their military drills.
