US And Japanese Leaders Condemned The Development Of North Korea’s Nuclear, Missile

US and Japanese leaders condemned the development of North Korea’s missile and nuclear program and Pyongyang’s recent launches of intercontinental ballistic missiles, according to a statement published by the White House on Monday following talks between US President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida.

“The two leaders condemned North Korea’s advancing nuclear and missile development activities, including its recent ICBM launches. They reaffirmed their commitment to the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula in accordance with UNSC resolutions, and urged North Korea to abide by its obligations under these resolutions,” the statement said.

Since the beginning of this year, Pyongyang has already performed more than ten missile tests, including a test of a prototype of an intercontinental ballistic missile and the deployment of submarine-launched ballistic missiles. Japan and the US have been consistently supporting the complete denuclearization of North Korea calling Pyongyang’s nuclear and missile activities a threat to peace and stability of the entire international community.
