    US and Japanese foreign and defence ministers have warned against “coercion and destabilising behaviour” by China and called for “complete denuclearisation” in North Korea during top-level talks in Tokyo.

    The statements on Tuesday came during Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s first foreign visit during the US administration of President Joe Biden.

    The officials will also visit South Korea as they look to strengthen regional alliances in the face of rising Chinese influence.
