WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Joe Biden says he and South Korean President Moon Jae-in remain "deeply concerned" about situation with North Korea.

Biden says he will deploy a new special envoy to the region to help refocus efforts on pressing Pyongyang to abandon its nuclear weapons program. Moon is welcoming "America's return" to the world stage.

Biden praised the "long history of shared sacrifice" by the two allies. Moon came to Washington seeking renewed diplomatic urgency by the U.S. on curbing North Korea's nuclear program.

The White House has completed a review of North Korea policy but hasn't detailed what it will look like.
