(VOVworld) - Chief military officers of South Korea, the United States and Japan agreed Thursday to boost their intelligence sharing on North Korea's recent long-range missile test and react "resolutely" to it. Chairman of Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Lee Sun-jin held talks with his US and Japanese counterparts, Gen. Joseph Dunford, and Adm. Katsutoshi Kawano, to coordinate their joint response to North Korea's recent provocations. They condemned the nuclear and missile tests as a "head-on" violation of United Nations' resolutions and vowed to "react resolutely" through close intelligence sharing. The meeting was held in Hawaii, but Lee participated from Seoul via video because he had to oversee combat readiness at home. The military chiefs also agreed to boost their collaboration on other mutual security issues regarding the Korean Peninsula and the Northeast Asian region.
