The Prime Minister spoke to President Moon Jae-in on 20 September at the UN General Assembly. The Foreign Secretary and I have regular contact with our US, Chinese, South Korean, Japanese and EU counterparts over the past month, including at the UN General Assembly in New York. The UK and the international community have condemned the aggressive and illegal actions of the North Korean regime, and the succession of missile and nuclear tests. We stand firmly by the Republic of Korea, Japan and our other international partners.
