Minister Kwon Youngse delivers congratulatory remarks at the Global NK International Conference organized by the EAI

On May 10, Unification Minister Kwon Youngse delivered congratulatory remarks at the Global NK International Conference sponsored by the Ministry of Unification and organized by the East Asia Institute (EAI).

The conference was attended by security experts at the Belfer Center at Harvard Kennedy School, Peking University, and the Grandview Institution.

During his congratulatory remarks, Minister Kwon said, "A unified response from the international community is required more than ever to bring uncommunicative North Korea to the dialogue table. China's role, in particular, is urgently needed as the North heavily relies on China."

Moreover, "While competition and conflict between the U.S. and China intensify, the Korean Peninsula issues will spark up close cooperation between the two nations," he added.

Minister Kwon stated, "In this sense, the Korean government will exert efforts to bring peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region while driving cooperation between the U.S. and China."
