US Secretary of State Stephen Biegan met with senior Foreign Ministry officials to discuss future policies toward North Korea. Vice Minister Vegan said he had worked closely with South Korea and shared moments of success and disappointment, noting that the cooperation between the United States and Korea will be strong in the next administration. This is reporter Dowon Kim. US Undersecretary of State Stephen Biegan met with Choi Jong-Geon, First Deputy Foreign Minister, and Lee Do-hoon, Head of the Korean Peninsula Peace Negotiations Headquarters. They are all close friends who have been grappling with North Korea’s nuclear negotiations for the past two years, and this is the last official meeting before the launch of the Biden administration. Vice Minister Vegan said North Korea’s special representative was very gratifying, and recalled the denuclearization negotiation process, which he had repeatedly fought fiercely with North Korea. Furthermore, he believed in all of Korea’s actions and emphasized that the next government will continue to cooperate with the United States. We urge Vegan to serve as a bridge to the next Biden administration. On a schedule of four nights and five days, the South Korean Vice Minister of Arms will meet with the Unification Minister, Lee In-young, and the Director of the National Intelligence Service, Park Ji-won. In addition, the Asan Institute for Political Studies plans to give a conference on the theme “The Future of America and the Korean Peninsula.” It should be noted that he is expected to provide advice to the North Korean and Biden administrations for denuclearization progress along with the backstory of the North Korean nuclear negotiations that have been experienced so far.
