U.S. Senior Official for the DPRK Dr. Jung Pak held a videoconference on February 21 with PRC Special Representative on Korean Peninsula Affairs Liu Xiaoming to discuss the DPRK’s increasingly destabilizing and escalatory behavior and its deepening military cooperation with Russia. The two sides discussed the need to maintain peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and the importance of returning to dialogue and diplomacy. They also discussed the growing military cooperation between Russia and the DPRK, which is in violation of numerous UN Security Council resolutions. This meeting follows Secretary Blinken’s February 16 meeting with PRC Director of the CCP Central Foreign Affairs Commission and Foreign Minister Wang Yi on the margins of the Munich Security Conference, where the two sides exchanged views on the situation on the Korean Peninsula and affirmed the importance of continued communications on DPRK issues at all levels.
Senior Official Pak stressed the need for all UN Member States to fulfill their obligations and fully implement the UN sanctions regime on the DPRK.
