Foreign minister Mogi said that it was difficult for the Japanese and Korean leaders, who had a weak relationship, to exchange words in Thailand for a short period of time, and that the Korean side had a solution to the problem of “recruitment”. Recognized that it is important to show.

Concerning this, Foreign Minister Motegi said at the press conference, “Prime Minister Abe was shaking hands with the leaders of each country in the waiting room, shaking hands with President Moon, and sitting on the sofa in a natural manner. It ’s difficult to make a big evaluation with the exchanges. ”
On top of that, he pointed out that “Mr. Men mentioned high-level talks, but the content is more important than level issues,” and the Korean side will continue to “recruit” during the Pacific War, although communication between diplomatic authorities will continue. I've reiterated the importance of showing solutions to problems.
