President Moon Jae-in says cooperation among Northeast Asian countries in developing Russia's Far East will be one of the means to fundamentally resolve the North Korean nuclear issue.
 
Moon made the remark in a keynote speech at the third annual Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok on Thursday. The president said successful economic development for the region will lead the North to realize joining the regional cooperation is in its interest.
 
Moon stressed North Korea is also an issue that should be resolved for Russia to develop its Far Eastern region.
 
He also thanked Moscow for actively participating in international sanctions on the North, and requested its continuous support in deterring the regime’s provocations.
