Pompeo pledges coordination with Japan in North Korea talks, to raise abduction issue

"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 denuclearizing North Korea," Pompeo told Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in Tokyo. Abe thanked Pompeo, who arrived in Tokyo on Saturday, for coming to Japan before he meets North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un on Sunday. Pompeo also said Japan and the United States were in a position to finalize a trade agreement after Abe and U.S. President Donald Trump discussed the issue in New York last month.
