A lot happened during the G20 Summit in Osaka, with world leaders rubbing shoulders and holding multilateral talks... as well as individual face time on the sidelines.
North Korea-related issues topped the agenda in many of these discussions.
To delve deeper into what was discussed,... we are joined by law professor Song Se-ryun from Kyung-hee university.
Welcome.
Good to be here.
President Moon has been a strong advocate for peace and denuclearization.
It appears he had a singular focus on these goals while in Osaka.
The regime's traditional allies China and Russia both held summits with Pyeongyang ahead of this G20.
Did it impact their stance on N. Korea issues?
What details did they provide about their meeting with Kim?
The U.S. President caught many observers off-guard with his sudden proposal to meet Kim Jong-un at the DMZ.
Is it possibly something that both sides planned all along?
Will it be more show than substance again?
How will it impact Seoul, Pyeongyang and Washington ties?
With North Korea issues being discussed among numerous world leaders,... what changes can we expect from related parties in dealing with this matter from here on?
Did it get overshadowed by trade war talks?
Thank you for your time professor Song.
