The UN Secretary General says no significant matters were brought up during his brief encounter last month with North Korea's foreign minister.
Ban Ki-moon told reporters Thursday... that he told Ri Su-yong that he appreciated his attendance at the signing of a UN climate agreement... and that he hoped to see him at more international meetings in the future.
When asked about the international response to the North's continued provocations, Ban said there seems to be no better option than sanctions for now.
But he added that the world is not imposing sanctions just for the sake of sanctions, but rather to induce a change in North Korea and turn it into a responsible member of the global community.
Ban is currently in Washington, attending an international climate conference.
