Kang strongly urged Kono to retract the country’s decision to remove South Korea from its "whitelist" of countries with fast-track trade status. Kono said he hoped the Korean government would pay attention to the safety of Japanese people in Korea.

康京和強烈呼籲河野撤回日本將南韓移出擁有快速出口貿易地位國家組成的「白名單」的決定。河野則表示，他希望南韓政府要注意南韓境內日本僑民的安全。

In a trilateral meeting where the three ministers gathered, Kang stressed that cooperation among the three nations should not be shaken by bilateral relations. "East Asia has a responsibility for global stability and prosperity," Kono said, noting that the economies of the three countries combined account for over 25 percent of the world’s gross domestic product.

康京和在三國外長參加的一場三方會議中強調，中、日、韓三國的合作，不應被雙邊關係削弱。河野亦指出，「東亞對全球的穩定和繁榮負有責任」。他還提到，在全球的國內生產毛額中，三國的經濟總共就佔了超過25％。
