| South and North Korean delegatesto the eighth Cabinet-level talks ironed out Wednesday an eight-point joint press statement whose gist is that the two Koreas will aggressively cooperate in settling all issues, including the North's nuclear issues, through "a means of dialogue." "Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah..." The statement was announced at the plenary session of the talks convened at Koryo Hotel in Pyongyang early in the morning after visiting South Korean chief delegate Jeong Se-hyun and his North Korean counterpart Kim Ryong-song fine-tuned its contents at their final one-on-one meeting. I love fine-tuning contents. That consists of things like making sure all the prepositions are three letters long and no sentence contains more than 12 commas or less than nine... "South and North Korea will make joint efforts to guarantee peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula, and actively cooperate to solve nuclear and all other issues via a means of dialogue," the statement said. Of course, the NKors also promised they wouldn't pursue a nuke program, too, so what's their word worth? |
