President Moon Jae-in comes to Washington seeking a common strategy toward Kim Jong Un. But in Seoul, the differences are on full display.
By Adam Taylor and Adam Taylor Foreign reporter who writes about a variety of subjects Email Bio Follow Michelle Ye Hee Lee Michelle Ye Hee Lee National political enterprise and accountability reporter covering money and influence in politics Email Bio Follow April 9 at 12:12 PM SEOUL — When summit talks collapsed between President Trump and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un in February, it was a political gut punch for South Korea’s president.
But if South Korea and the United States are really united over the approach to Kim, they may be reading from different scripts. North Korean military officials have not responded to South Korean requests in the weeks following the Hanoi summit to cooperate in joint searches for military remains in the demilitarized zone. That suggested it may be difficult to coax the North back into engagement after the failed talks.
He and other South Korean figures inside and outside the government spoke to a number of visiting reporters, including journalists from The Washington Post, as part of the Korea Journalist Fellowship Program. The trip was sponsored by the Atlantic Council, a nonpartisan think tank in Washington, in partnership with the Korea Foundation.
South Korean officials said several lines of communication are currently open between the pair, including messages passed indirectly through China and Russia.
