South Korea's Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se and U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson wrapped up a joint press conference about half an hour ago... before sitting down together for a meeting, which is being held as we speak.
During their talks, the two are expected to share ideas on a new approach to North Korea.
For more on the joint press conference, we connect live to our foreign ministry correspondent Connie Kim.
Daniel,
The message from the new U.S. administration was strong.
Rex Tillerson said that the past twenty years of efforts to denuclearize North Korea have failed... and that the one-point-three billion U.S. dollars that's been sent to North Korea since 1995... has not been effective in countering North Korea's ballistic missile threats.
Tillerson called on North Korea to abandon its nuclear weapons program and said it had no reason to fear the U.S.
But he also said all options are on the table, saying that although the U.S. does not want military tensions,... it will take action against Pyongyang if necessary.
Tillerson called for a new approach to North Korea yesterday, in his joint press conference with Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.
We hear the THAAD missile defense system deployment was brought up as well. Can you give us some specifics?
Yes I asked Tillerson whether the THAAD issue would be brought up during talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Foreign Minister Wang Yi.
He said China's apparent retaliatory actions against South Korea for its THAAD deployment are inappropriate and troublesome... and that Beijing should refrain from such actions.
Tillerson also said that China should change its position as the system is purely defensive in nature and is necessary because of the lingering threats from North Korea.
But it's still an open question as to what extent the THAAD issue will be discussed when Tillerson meets with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Chinese Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se.
