Direct Talks with North Korea is Necessary - South Korea

-

Today, amidst the tensed regional instability in the Korean peninsula, South Korean President, Moon Jae-in offered to begin direct talks with North Korea in effort to ease animosities along their border. He also seeks to resume reunions of families separated by their infamous war in the 1950s, E-conner learnt.

"We request military talks with the North on July 21 at Tongilgak to stop all hostile activities that raise military tension at the military demarcation line," South Korea's Vice Defence Minister Suh Choo-suk said while briefing the media on Monday.

Seoul's proposal details two sets of talks with its Korean neighbour as President Moon Jae-in presses to improve ties with Pyongyang, despite the North's first intercontinental ballistic missile test a few days ago month.

The proposal is coming 7 days after Moon said the need for dialogue with North Korea was "more pressing than" ever to curb Pyongyang's nuclear and missile programmes.

According to reports gathered by E-Conner, the vice defence minister did not expatiate on the meaning of "hostile military activities", which varies between the two Koreas. South Korea usually refers to loudspeaker broadcasts and other provocations, while the North wants a halt to routine joint US-South Korea military.

Earlier in his presidency, Moon had suggested hostile military activities be halted at the inter-Korean border on July 27, the anniversary of the 1953 armistice agreement that ended the Korean War in the 1950s.
