Yonhap News Agency said that Li Yonghao wore a black suit and purple tie and checked into a hotel in Singapore on the 3rd. He didn't give an interview to the media. Li Yonghao and DPRK personnel checked into the hotel that morning.

It is reported that Li Yonghao is expected to make a statement on denuclearization measures and final declaration at the Foreign Ministers' Meeting of the ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) on the 4th. According to an article published by Kyodo News, Li Yonghao may emphasize that the declaration of the end of the Korean War is indispensable for promoting the denuclearization of the peninsula, and he will also strive for the international community to relax sanctions through active diplomatic actions, hoping to get rid of North Korea's isolation in the international community.

On April 27th this year, Kim Jong-un, the top leader of the DPRK, held talks with South Korean President Moon Jae in on the Korean side of the non-military demarcation line between the two countries, and issued the Panmunjom Declaration, indicating that the DPRK and the ROK will advance the final war agreement and peace agreement within this year. On June 12, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and US President Trump held a historic meeting in Singapore to discuss issues such as denuclearization of the peninsula. In July, US Secretary of State Pompeo visited the DPRK.

According to Japan's Yonhap News Agency, North Korea later criticized the United States for "putting forward a robber-like demand for denuclearization" and stressed that the final declaration was the "first procedure" for building trust and establishing a peace system on the Korean Peninsula.

Apart from Li Yonghao's speech at the Foreign Ministers' Meeting, which foreign ministers he will contact has also attracted much attention. Japan's Yonhap News Agency said that in addition to the ASEAN Regional Forum foreign ministers' meeting on the 4th, Li Yonghao's trip to Singapore will coordinate bilateral talks with ASEAN foreign ministers.

White House spokesman Sanders revealed on the 2nd that US President Trump 1 received a letter from Kim Jong-un and made a reply. The reply will be sent to North Korea soon. Sanders did not disclose the contents of the letter, but she said that such exchanges were to promote the issues reached at the US-DPRK summit. * * * According to Xinhua News Agency, Li Yonghao may hold talks with US Secretary of State Pompeo who arrived in Singapore later that day.

In addition, the Japanese government is also exploring ways to promote talks between Japan and its foreign ministers, but Japanese Foreign Minister Tarō Kōno told the media on the evening of the 2nd that "nothing has been decided".

Meanwhile, if Li Yonghao meets with South Korean Foreign Minister Kang Jinghe, it will be the second meeting between the foreign ministers of the two countries after 1 1 year. South Korea's "National Daily" previously said that Kang Jinghe had repeatedly expressed his intention to meet with Li Yonghao. The South Korean Foreign Ministry revealed that the South Korean side proposed to the DPRK to hold talks through various channels, but it has not yet received a clear answer.
