At the talks in Washington, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea, Cho Hyun, and the US Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, confirmed their commitment to the complete denuclearization of North Korea. This was reported on July 31 on the website of the US Department of State.

"Secretary Rubio and Foreign Minister Cho also reaffirmed their strong commitment to the complete denuclearization of the DPRK and the full implementation of international sanctions," the statement said.

In addition, the parties expressed their intention to strengthen trilateral cooperation between the Republic of Korea, the United States and Japan. Cho Hyun expressed hope that the partnership between Seoul and Washington will develop not only in the field of security and economics, but also in the field of high technology, which he described as the "third axis of cooperation."

On July 13, the Korean Central News Agency said that North Korea was ready to respond with military action if there were threats from the United States, Japan and South Korea. It was clarified that the United States, Japan and South Korea are turning into a trilateral military alliance. This is evidence that at any moment a "phase of unpredictable military confrontation" may come.
