It is clarified that the South Korean and American parties agreed that the process of denuclearization of North Korea should move along with the strengthening of the alliance between the United States and South Korea.

According to the agency, Moon also noted that he considers Esper “the right person” to maintain a strong alliance between South Korea and the United States.

As a result of his visit to Seoul, Esper said earlier that the United States, together with South Korea, advocates "freedom in the Indo-Pacific region."
