North Korea Proposes High-Level Talks
North Korea on Wednesday proposed holding high-level military talks with South Korea on May 26 aimed at reducing tension centered on the international standoff over the communist state's nuclear weapons development. In a telephone message, the North suggested that officials meet on the border Friday to work out the proposed high-level talks, the South's Defense Ministry said. The North proposed holding the high-level talks May 26 at its east coast Diamond Mountain resort, it said. The South did not have an immediate response, but it has repeatedly urged the North for such high-level military talks.
"Kim! It's our crazy cousins up north! They want us to come up there to talk!"
"Sure, but I wouldn't travel there by train." |
