WASHINGTON -- US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will attend a United Nations meeting on North Korea later this week, a spokesperson said Wednesday.
Tillerson is scheduled to participate in the UN Security Council Ministerial Briefing on Non-Proliferation and North Korea in New York on Friday, according to State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert.
"Secretary Tillerson will reiterate that the United States and the international community will not stand by while North Korea continues to develop nuclear and missile capabilities that openly threaten international peace and security," she said in a statement.
