TOKYO (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Saturday he would coordinate closely with Japan during denuclearisation talks with North Korea and promised to raise the issue of the abductions of Japanese citizens in his meetings in Pyongyang.
"We will have a fully coordinated, unified view of how to proceed, which will be what is needed if it is going to be successful in denuclearising North Korea," Pompeo told Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Tokyo. "We will bring up the issue of the abductees as well," he said.
