Russia and South Korea will ramp up cooperation and look at options for joint action on the Korean peace process, the Russian Foreign Ministry said Tuesday.
This came after a meeting in Seoul between Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov and South Korea's Special Representative for Korean Peninsula Peace and Security Affairs Lee Do-hoon.
"It was agreed to deepen coordination between Russia and South Korea, including working on joint steps on the path toward Korean settlement," a statement by the Russian ministry read.
US national security adviser John Bolton said earlier this month that President Donald Trump believed he needed to have a second meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to move ahead with denuclearization. The new summit could take place in January or February, the aide said.
