U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, made a rare visit to Tokyo, where she met with the families of Japanese nationals abducted by North Korea. During her visit, she reaffirmed the U.S. commitment to support Japan until all abductees are returned, aiming to end their decades-long painful separation. This visit, part of a broader trip that also included South Korea, coincides with discussions on enhancing the U.N.'s relevance and strengthening alliances to counter North Korea's nuclear threats. Additionally, Thomas-Greenfield's trip included a historic visit to Nagasaki, marking her as the first U.S. cabinet minister to do so. The U.S. and its allies are exploring a new mechanism for monitoring North Korea's nuclear program, both within and outside the U.N. framework.
