However, when asked if it seems necessary to disclose the contents of the USB handed over to North Korea during the April 27 Panmunjom summit in 2018, “I don’t think it is appropriate in light of the practice of the summit meeting or the current situation of inter-Korean relations.” Said. Candidate Jung served as head of the National Security Office of the Blue House at the time.
Candidate Jung met with reporters near the government office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 2nd. “Recently, the domestic controversy over the issue of nuclear power plant support to North Korea is proceeding in a very wrong direction.” He argued that it was a sane theory that it was reviewed.
Candidate Jung continued, “I see it as a very unsense leap of logic,” he said. “Under the current situation, no country can provide nuclear power to North Korea, nor did we internally review the issue of providing nuclear power.” Regarding some of the claims that there is a possibility that the contents of the construction of a nuclear power plant in North Korea may be included in the USB, he said, “The USB contained the approximate idea of the Korean government for the’New Economy Initiative on the Korean Peninsula’.” “The nuclear power plant was not included at all.” “I shared enough with the United States,” he said. “I visited Washington right after the Panmunjom talks ended and provided the United States with the same USB contents that were provided to North Korea.”
When asked how to prove that there is no content related to the nuclear power plant without revealing the USB, he said, “I think it will be released sometime,” and “I don’t think it is appropriate to open it now in my personal opinion.”
