“Instead, it should engage in constructive dialogue and redirect its efforts to deliver prosperity and a better livelihood to its people. The choice is up to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.”

“However narrow and bumpy it may seem, the road towards peaceful denuclearization through dialogue is still open and available. The Government of the Republic of Korea urges the Democratic People's Republic of Korea to participate in the PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games and to stop its destabilizing provocations in the lead up to the Olympics of peace. I sincerely hope that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea will take this message seriously and seize the opportunity to create a conducive atmosphere for sincere dialogue towards denuclearization. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea should abandon the delusional idea of pursuing security through the development of illegal nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.”

“I would like to thank each and every member of the Council, including the United States, for their hard work to unanimously adopt the resolution. I should like to take this opportunity to emphasize loud and clear the importance of seamless and complete implementation. The Republic of Korea remains committed to supporting any other Member State in its efforts to fully and effectively implement all relevant resolutions, including the resolution adopted today. I wish to draw the Council's attention to a view widely shared by the participants at last week's Security Council ministerial meeting. Sanctions are not an end in themselves but an effective means to bring North Korea back on track towards a peaceful, diplomatic and political solution.”

“The stark contrast that we witnessed last Friday between the representative of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the Council revealed once again how isolated the regime is and how unconvincing its claims have been. We as the international community must continue to stand united and demonstrate our resolute determination to the Democratic People's Republic of Korea that a nuclear North Korea will never be recognized and, that if it continues down this path, there will continue to be consequences. In this context, the Republic of Korea welcomes and fully supports the adoption of resolution 2397 (2017), which introduces robust measures that build on and tighten the existing sanctions against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.”

“Let me begin by thanking you, Sir, for convening today's meeting to follow up on our discussion of three weeks ago in response to North Korea's launch of a ballistic missile on 29 November. I also very much appreciate your invitation to this important meeting. Exactly one week ago in this very Chamber (see S/PV.8137), delegations and representatives from 16 countries, including my own, reiterated our condemnation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's provocative behaviour as one of the most serious threats to international peace and security and a flagrant violation of relevant Security Council resolutions. We also reaffirmed our unwavering commitment to the denuclearization of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.”
