UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, urged the global community to show patience and support in implementing the agreement made between US President, Donald Trump and North Korean leader, Kim Jong-Un in Singapore.
This was contained in a statement issued by “Implementing today’s and previous agreements reached, in accordance with relevant security council resolutions, will require patience and support from the global community,” the council spokesman, Stephen Dujarric, said in a statement on Tuesday.
Guterres believes the Trump-Kim summit is an important milestone in advancing peace and denuclearising the Korean Peninsula.
The statement said: “The Secretary-General urges all concerned parties to seize this momentous opportunity and reiterates his readiness to fully support the ongoing process.”
During a historic summit in Singapore, Trump and Kim signed an agreement demonstrating their commitment to establish new bilateral relations and to build a lasting peace on the Korean Peninsula.
Pyongyang also reaffirmed its commitment to the denuclearisation of the Korean Peninsula, while the US pledged to provide security guarantees.
