1st LD: Moon, Trump see possibility for inter-Korean talks leading to U.S.-DPRK talks

Xinhua,January 10, 2018 Adjust font size:

SEOUL, Jan. 10 (Xinhua) -- South Korean President Moon Jae-in and U.S. President Donald Trump saw a possibility for talks between South Korea and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) leading to talks between the United States and the DPRK, multiple local media reports said Wednesday.

Moon and Trump had a telephone conversation for about half an hour earlier in the day, after South Korea and the DPRK held the first high-level talks in around two years in the truce village of Panmunjom the previous day.

Trump said he would be open to talks if the DPRK wants it at an appropriate time and under right situations, noting that there would be no military action toward Pyongyang during the inter-Korean dialogue. Enditem
