During the meeting, the parties were expected to exchange opinions on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and on an inter-Korean summit slated for late April and a U.S.-North Korea summit expected in May.

„The participants had a constructive exchange of views in a positive atmosphere,“ Kimmo Lahdevirta, head of the Asia desk at the Finnish foreign ministry, told reporters at a government manor in Northern Helsinki where the delegates had been secluded.
