North-South Korea end war after 65 years

North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un reached South Korea on Friday for a historic dialogue, where South Korean President Moon Jae-in met him. The special thing is that Kim Jong has reached South Korea on the pedestrian boundary. In this way Kim Jong was the first leader of North Korea to step on South Korea’s land since the end of the Korean War in 1953.

According to reports, South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in joined smiling Kim Jong at the border before the talks started, and joined hands with great promptness. Kim Jong said at the conference venue that he is expecting a great discussion. This historic meeting will also focus on North Korea’s signals, in which Kim Jong expressed his desire to leave his nuclear weapons.

At a historic summit meeting, the leaders vowed to negotiate a peace treaty to replace a truce that has kept an uneasy peace on the divided Korean Peninsula for more than six decades, while ridding it of nuclear weapons. A peace treaty has been one of the incentives North Korea has demanded in return for bargaining away its nuclear weapons.

“South and North Korea confirmed the common goal of realizing, through complete denuclearization, a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula,” read a statement signed by North Korea’s leader, Kim Jong-un, and the South’s president, Moon Jae-in, after their meeting at the border village of Panmunjom.

Also, Kim’s unscripted gesture took many by surprise when he invited Moon to briefly cross the inter-Korean border to the North Korean side, which South Korean officials said was not pre-arranged. After wrapping up the first-round session of talks at the summit, Kim Jong-un and his aides crossed back to the North side.
After 65 years, the leaders of the two Korean states took a giant leap forward on Friday by officially declaring the commitment to bring an official end to the seven-decade-long conflict of the Korean War. After making the proclamation, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un said, “It took a long time for the two Koreas to come together… South and North Korea are the same people, the same blood, they cannot be separated”.
