“ I don’t think there will be any — somehow, you know, sort of, a nameplate or a title coming out of the meeting tomorrow. I think the primary goal is to ensure that we have a deep, shared understanding of circumstances that are taking place on the peninsula in North Korea — that our goals and assessments of what we want to achieve are in alignment — and that’s of critical importance — and also for us to brief both teams on what we believe are the essential elements of our strategy going forward. ”

“ We’ve consulted previous individuals and teams that have been involved in diplomacy with North Korea. And we’re prepared to now have some final consultations with Japan and South Korea as we go forward.

In addition to North Korea, I think we will also discuss other strategic and regional and economic goals. We’re going to talk extensively on technology, including on semiconductors, supply chains, and biotechnology. ”

“ I think it’d be fair to say that our three countries hold many of the keys to the future of semiconductor manufacturing technology. And we will seek to affirm the importance of keeping these sensitive supply chains secure while also working together to uphold upcoming norms and standards discussions. ”
