Historisches drittes Treffen von Nord- und Südkorea

April 27, 2018 - Das historische Treffen von Kim Jong-un von Nordkorea und Südkoreas Präsident Moon Jae-in im "Waffenstillstandsdorf" Panjunjom ist erst das dritte Treffen zwischen den beiden Ländern seit dem Korea Krieg.

Kim’s father, Kim Jong-il, met with two South Korean presidents – Kim Dae-jung in 2000 and Roh Moo-hyun in 2007 – in Pyongyang.

The previous two summits, which focused more broadly on ending conflict and expanding economic exchanges, generated a host of economic and military agreements that resulted in little headway.

The Kim/Moon summit could bring about a formal truce and lay the groundwork for a meeting between Kim and U.S. President Donald Trump.

Observers say the summit could provide a breakthrough after years of tension.
