President Moon Jae-in asked U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman to play a proactive role for the resumption of talks between Washington and Pyongyang, as they met each other at Cheong Wa Dae on Thursday.
Moon recalled his summit agreement with President Joe Biden in May to continue joint efforts for the shared goal of completely denuclearizing Korea and establishing permanent peace, according to Cheong Wa Dae spokesperson Park Kyung-mee.
Sherman expressed hope that North Korea will respond positively to the Biden administration's dialogue offer at an early date.
She was quoted as saying that she wants the United States and South Korea to maintain a closely coordinated campaign on the North Korea issue.
