North Korea makes 'agreement' with South Korea after historic meeting: KCNA

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un met senior South Korean government officials for the first time and said it is his “firm will to vigorously advance” inter-Korean ties and pursue reunification, the North’s official news agency said on Tuesday.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un meets members of the special delegation of South Korea's President in this photo released by North Korea's Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on March 6, 2018.

A 10-member South Korean delegation led by National Security Office head Chung Eui-yong traveled to the North Korean capital, Pyongyang, on Monday in hopes of encouraging North Korea and the United States to talk to one another.

Washington and Pyongyang have been at loggerheads for months over the North’s nuclear and missile programs, with U.S. President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un trading insults and threatening war.

Tensions between the two Koreas eased during the recent Winter Olympics in South Korea, where President Moon Jae-In hosted a high-level North Korean delegation. Kim Jong Un invited Moon to North Korea for a summit, which Moon said the two sides should work towards.

“Hearing the intention of President Moon Jae In for a summit from the special envoy of the south side, (Kim Jong Un) exchanged views and made a satisfactory agreement,” the North’s Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said of the meeting.

The agency did not provide details on what that agreement was but an official from the presidential Blue House in Seoul said it partially addressed the summit offer made by the North.

The delegation will wrap up a two-day trip to Pyongyang later on Tuesday after another meeting with North Korean officials, the spokesman said.

It also depends who they are talking to. Trump could send Kim a delegation of MS13 members which would really make things interesting...

The Clinton foundation. crazy? I'm done talking with someone that doesn't follow the Clinton Foundation.

Right. Can't prove your claim so call the person who asks a question 'crazy' and run. Typical coward liberal.

Proof and observations are two different words

Here are the first indictments on Uranium one. Since you want proof not observations I can only give you proofs of what we have so far.

Not so fast. Even if the Koreas unite and work a miracle, it's only because Obama "laid the foundation", and it will only happen in spite of Trump.

I guarantee it. CNN will come through with the lunacy, without fail.

We shouldn’t trust KJU for a second. This is all a ruse to get some sanctions lifted and he’ll go right back to his old ways.
