South Korea: Trump will now turn the spotlight on North Korea

South Korea's President Lee Jae Myung stated during the G7 meeting in France that U.S. President Donald Trump expressed interest in focusing attention on North Korea following the agreement with Iran. Lee mentioned that sanctions against North Korea have become less effective due to military cooperation between North Korea and Russia in the Ukraine war. Trump posted a photo of himself with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on social media shortly after announcing the Iran deal.

Nå som avtalen med Iran har kommet i stand, skal USAs president Donald Trump rette oppmerksomheten mot Nord-Korea, ifølge Sør-Korea.

Den sørkoreanske presidenten Lee Jae Myung møtte Trump under G7-møtet i Frankrike denne uken.

Da sa den amerikanske presidenten at tiden er inne for å rette søkelyset mot Nord-Korea-spørsmålet, ifølge Lee.

Han sa videre at han fortalte Trump at sanksjonene som ble ilagt Nord-Korea på grunn av landets atomprogram, er virkningsløse.

– Effekten av sanksjonene har minsket på grunn av det militære samarbeidet mellom Nord-Korea og Russland i Ukraina-krigen, sa Lee.

– Selv litt assistanse fra Russland er en stor hjelp for Nord-Korea, sa han videre.

Lørdag, få timer etter at Trump kunngjorde at USA og Iran var enige om en avtale, publiserte han et bilde av seg selv og Nord-Koreas leder Kim Jong-un i sosiale medier . Bildet var fra møtet deres i Singapore i 2018. Innlegget var uten tekst, men det førte til spekulasjoner om at han nå skal ta for seg Nord-Korea.
