Top nuclear envoys of South Korea, the U.S. and Japan will meet in Tokyo this month to discuss ways to resolve the North Korean nuclear issue.
 
A diplomatic source said on Tuesday that the three nations are arranging a meeting between Seoul’s chief nuclear envoy Kim Hong-kyun and his U.S. and Japanese counterparts Joseph Yun and Kenji Kanasugi in Tokyo next week.
 
As the U.S. Trump administration has labeled its North Korea policy “maximum pressure and engagement,” the three chief nuclear negotiators are expected to discuss specific ways to implement the policy.
 
The three envoys held their latest trilateral meeting in Washington in February. The planned meeting in Tokyo will likely be their last before a new government is launched in South Korea.
