South Korea's foreign minister Kang Kyung-wha and U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo have discussed pending issues between the two sides, including the U.S. sanctions that are about to be imposed on Iran.
Seoul's foreign ministry says that, in phone talks Monday, Kang asked for flexibility in allowing Seoul to be exempted from Washington's sanctions on Iran.
Pompeo said he would take Seoul's request into account and continue to closely cooperate.
Kang also briefed Pompeo on her meeting with U.S. nuclear envoy Stephen Biegun earlier in the day and the two exchanged views on achieving the complete denuclearization of North Korea and bringing permanent peace to the peninsula.
