MODERATOR：Anyone in the back？ In the middle， please. And we’ll go to New York after this question， please.
QUESTION：Okay. Yeah， I’m Gyuseok Jang， from Christian Broadcasting System. I’m from Korea. And my question is actually， as you mentioned， we need a time for the – spare time for the cherry blossom. And so would you possibly can give us that will there be a press conference after their meeting？ And would you give us a little more detailed schedule about that？
Also， if possible – would you possibly can give us – what does that mean when you’re saying that the clock has running – the clock is running out？ So yeah， if you – possible just to give us a little more explanation about that. Thank you very much.
MR POTTINGER：Do you want to talk about the schedule of the －－
MS THORNTON：Why not？ So I think that – （laughter） – well， I’m not the person to talk about the schedule， but I think that the question came up yesterday about the press arrangements at the Mar－a－Lago summit， and I think probably the best thing to do there – probably neither one of us is the best person to talk in detail about that. So if there needs some further detail on the press arrangements surrounding the summit， probably the White House Press Office would be the place to get those details.
I was just going to say on the issue that you talked about with North Korea， I think you heard Secretary of State Tillerson. He was in Korea not long ago， made a trip to the Demilitarized Zone， had a press conference in Korea and spoke pretty clearly on the issue of where we stand on North Korea right now， that he said that the time for talking is now over – strategic patience has run out. This problem has really become very urgent， and it is， as Matt said， destabilizing to the entire region and actually further than the region now， reaches across the globe with the progress that North Korea is making in developing an intercontinental ballistic missile.
