Candidate Chung Eui-yong, who oversaw the Panmunjom talks on April 27, 2018, requested a press conference yesterday (2nd) to counter the suspicion of North Korea's nuclear power plant.
[Jeong Eui-yong / Candidate of the Minister of Foreign Affairs: It is absurd to have reviewed the plan to support (North Korean nuclear power plant). The Blue House and the National Security Council did not review it at all.] The
government stressed that it had never even reviewed, saying that at least five conditions must be satisfied to provide nuclear power to North Korea, including finalizing denuclearization negotiations and returning to the North Korean nuclear proliferation treaty. .
President Moon Jae-in said that the USB handed over to North Korea's North Korean leader Kim Jong-un contained only the New Economy Plan on the Korean peninsula, but not related to nuclear power plants, and that the same USB contents were delivered to U.S. White House assistant Bolton at the time.
[Jeong Eui-yong / Candidate of the Minister of Foreign Affairs: (when denuclearization progresses) Explained that it was a data for that purpose to present the vision of economic cooperation, and the United States agreed, and in fact, the United States responded very positively... .]
This position was expressed when Candidate Chung, who had refrained from exposure to the media, first requested an interview with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' access reporters.
