Deputy Secretary Kurt Campbell met with Republic of Korea (ROK) Minister of Unification (MOU) Kim Yung-ho in Washington today, followed by a roundtable discussion with two DPRK escapees. Deputy Secretary Campbell and Minister Kim emphasized the importance of deterring DPRK aggression and addressing the destabilizing impacts of deepening cooperation between the DPRK and Russia on international peace and the global non-proliferation regime. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to U.S.-ROK collaboration, promoting accountability for DPRK human rights abuses, and supporting unfettered access to information for North Koreans. Deputy Secretary Campbell reiterated U.S. support for the reunification of separated families, including Korean American divided families and ROK detainees, abductees, and unrepatriated POWs, the welfare of the North Korean people, and an enduring peace on the Korean Peninsula.
