Foreign Minister, Taro Kano, and US Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, met this past Thursday to discuss a policy regarding the deterrence of the North Korean nuclear program build-up. In addition, both countries emphasized the importance of China's role in strengthening Pyongyang, as China remains responsible for the maintained North Korean economy. Japan and the U.S. plan to embolden their alliance, while the U.S. prepares further sanctions for North Korea and more military pressure on China, knowing China opposes such strong ties between the two countries.
