강경화, 한일 외교장관 통화 "화이트리스트 등 상황 악화 조치 하지 말라"

While Japan is looking to remove South Korea from its whitelist,... Seoul's foreign minister, Kang Kyung-wha, told her Japanese counterpart today NOT to aggravate the situation.
Seoul's foreign ministry says the minister made the plea to Taro Kono over the phone earlier today.
Kang also again urged Tokyo to remove its trade restrictions against Seoul.
Kono held his ground on that issue, but... they did agree on the need to continue dialogue and to use multilateral meetings to exchange views.
The two diplomats also discussed North Korea's latest missile launch.... and agreed that Seoul, Tokyo and Washington need to work together at such an important juncture.
