BANGKOK - U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he would encourage the two biggest U.S. allies in Asia - Japan and South Korea - “to find a path forward” from a dispute that has roiled their ties when he meets their foreign ministers this week.
A U.S. official said in Washington that the United States has urged both nations to consider signing a “standstill agreement” on their dispute to buy time for them to talk. Asked about Pompeo’s statement, Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said Tokyo has been conveying its stance and thoughts on various issues to the United States.
“There is no change to our stance that we continue to urge South Korea to take constructive actions based on our consistent stance over various issues.”An official at South Korea’s presidential Blue House told reporters “there are efforts being made now via various channels between Korea and Japan, Korea and the United States, and the United States and Japan, to resolve the issue.”
