US, South Korea and Japan reaffirm push for North Korea's denuclearisation

The United States, South Korea, and Japan have reaffirmed their commitment to the complete denuclearisation of North Korea during talks on the sidelines of the G20 meeting in Atlanta, Georgia. The three countries pledged to fully implement UN Security Council resolutions against Pyongyang, including restrictions on financial support for North Korea's nuclear and ballistic missile programmes.

Speculation has grown over a possible meeting between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un at the upcoming APEC summit in November, though North Korea has yet to respond to Trump's overtures. North Korea has consistently maintained its nuclear arsenal as permanent and non-negotiable, backed by Russia and China.
