South Korean National Security Adviser Wi Sung-lac has stated that Seoul intends to work closely with the United States to ensure that a renewed dialogue between Washington and Pyongyang leads to concrete advancements in addressing the North Korean nuclear issue. This comment came during a press conference as President Donald Trump has consistently expressed his desire to revive dormant talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

The government's strategy involves fostering trust between North Korea and the U.S. to facilitate President Trump's endeavors.
