North Korea yesterday (28th) announced its position on Mt. About 3 hours ago, we had a press conference at midnight with a view of Vietnam at 2 o'clock in the morning. Let me start with the story of the foreign minister of North Lyon, who was in the press conference.

<Lyon Yong / North Korea Foreign Affairs>

Hello. Let me tell you our position on the result of the second reunion and the result of the talks. We will not take questions.

The headmaster of the Korea Republic of Korea has conducted a serious meeting for two days with great patience and self-control.

We have raised realistic proposals at the talks in line with the principles of trust adjustment and phased resolution that led to a joint recognition of the first round of summit talks in Singapore last June and talks.

When the United States lifts sanctions on some of the United Nations sanctions, namely the civilian economy and especially the people's lives, we will have all nuclear material production facilities in Yongbyon, including plutonium and uranium, The job is to permanently dispose of it completely.

We have asked for a total of eleven resolutions, specifically, UN resolutions, not five, which were adopted from 2016 to 2017, but only those items that hinder the civilian economy and people's lives. It is.

This is the denuclearization measure of the greatest stride we can bear at this stage, given the current level of trust between the two countries.

A more important issue in our denuclearization efforts is the original safety assurance issue, but seeing the partial dismissal as a countermeasure, the US believes that it will be more burdensome for the military to take action.

At the talks, we also expressed the commitment to permanently discontinue the nuclear test and the long - range rocket test to reduce US concerns.

Through this level of confidence building, the denuclearization process will move forward more quickly.

But in the course of the talks, it was clear to the US that the United States insisted that it had to do one more thing than to dismantle its nuclear facilities in Yongbyon and that the United States was not ready to accept our proposal.

It is hard to say at this stage whether a better consensus can be reached at this stage than we have proposed.

It may be hard to come back to this opportunity again.

It is imperative that this first step process is inevitable for the journey to complete denuclearization, and we must go through the process of realizing our best practice.

This principle will not change, and even if the US issues the negotiations again, our direction will not change.

That is all. Thank you.
