Seoul's Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon held talks with top U.S. nuclear envoy Stephen Biegun in Seoul on Tuesday.

Cho said many inter-Korean developments had happened since the two met last month, and that this was an important meeting to calibrate the pace in inter-Korean and U.S.-North Korean relations.

Biegun said Washington and Seoul are both seeking peace and stability, primarily through denuclearization of North Korea.
