SEOUL (Reuters) -South Korea’s national security advisor has said he and his counterparts from the United States and Japan have agreed there will be no soft response if North Korea conducts a nuclear test, Yonhap news agency reported on Friday.
Kim Sung-han made the comment in Hawaii where he held trilateral talks with U.S. national security advisor Jake Sullivan and Akiba Takeo of Japan.
The three officials also agreed to work together against any actions that disrupt global supply chains, Yonhap quoted Kim as saying.
