And now that he has returned to power, the U.S., Japan and its allies can move toward resolving issues with North Korea, including denuclearization.”Japan and U.S. will work together toward the complete denuclearization of North Korea,” Ishiba added.Prime Minister Ishiba also addressed a grievance involving the abduction of Japanese citizens by North Korea in the 1970s and 1980s. Although North Korea released some of the prisoners in the early 2000s, Pyongyang never provided Japan with any explanation for the abduction of its citizens, and there can be no normalization of relations between Japan and North Korea until the issue is resolved.”And so our time is limited,” Ishiba warned.”So, I don’t know if the president of the United States, if President Trump is able to resolve this issue. We do understand that it’s a Japan issue, first and foremost. Having said that, we would love to continue to cooperate with them,” the prime minister added.
