The State Department spokesperson emphasized the necessity of achieving lasting peace through the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, following North Korea's revelation of a uranium enrichment facility. The spokesperson reiterated the call for Pyongyang to engage in constructive dialogue and reaffirmed the United States' unwavering security commitment to South Korea and Japan. The spokesperson also urged North Korea to comply with its obligations under U.N. Security Council resolutions and return to constructive dialogue without delay, while emphasizing the strengthening of security relationships with allies and partners. Additionally, White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby highlighted the increased deployment of intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance assets for security on the Korean Peninsula. He emphasized the U.S.'s commitment to revitalizing alliances and partnerships in the region and its willingness to engage in discussions with North Korea about denuclearization without preconditions. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller stated that the newly disclosed video of the uranium enrichment facility does not alter the overall U.S. policy on North Korea, and reiterated the commitment to defending South Korean and Japanese allies while working towards the full denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. The North's disclosure of the nuclear facility, coupled with recent missile launches, has raised concerns about potential provocations around the U.S. presidential election. The KCNA report indicated that Kim Jong-un visited the Nuclear Weapons Institute and a production base of weapon-grade nuclear materials, without specifying the location or visit date. South Korean and U.S. intelligence agencies believe North Korea operates uranium enrichment facilities in Kangson and at the Yongbyon nuclear site.
