The two Koreas will discuss recovering the remains of fallen soldiers and eliminating land mines in the Dmz Zone during another round of military talks expected to take place as early as late this month.
They will also run a communication line among their naval ships in the Yellow Sea and fully restore western and eastern military communication channels, according to the agreement reached during Thursday's general-grade meeting, the first in more than a decade.
"In the follow-up military talks, (we) plan to focus on the issue of replacing the old communication line in the North and establishing a new one," an official at Seoul's defense ministry said on condition of anonymity.
"The construction work, such as installing optical cables and other equipment, would take two to three months," he added.
The official also noted that ahead of the construction work, his ministry asked the foreign ministry to check if installing such communication equipment would run afoul of international sanctions against the North.
"Should it be seen as infrastructure construction, it could be seen as an exception (from the sanctions)," he said.

I don’t think Trump is concerned about the opinions of any of the underwhelming members of the British royal family, including the present queen. The so-called prestige of the Firm’s brand has taken a beating during the past few decades, including just recently. They get more downmarket by the year.
PDJT said today that he gave Kim a direct phone number for him to call if he runs into any problems, LOL!
Wouldn’t THAT be something if Kim ends up over here for protection from those that want to kill him for opening up NK to the world?
PDJT knows SOMETHING of that, though the b@stards haven’t tried it...that, ‘We The People’ know of...
...Yet! (Prayers Up - Daily!)
Who would have thought Dennis Rodman and Anthony Weiner would save the world as we know it.
Good we can use the landmines on our border with Mexico.
This is such a wonderful, wonderful thing - and how many other Presidents would have even considered asking for it to happen ?
Trump has such a true and pure love and admiration for our vets and our fallen heroes. It almost brings a tear to my eye to see a President back in the WH who has respect for our armed forces.
Trump read Kim before they even met and that “first minute” thing was just to confirm.
I think the whole back and forth between them right up to and insluding the summit was designed to empower Kim.
The us gov already has a huge psych profile on Kim I’m sure and Pompeo is privy to it, being ex-CIA Director.
Between Pompeo and Trump, I think Kim knows we ain’t screwin’ around.
I agree.....and from Kims position he wanted someone to hear him that he thought could answer his questions and strong enough to see his vision of how he wanted things to change and how to get there. Talking with Trump one on one, long before the Summit, the two ran into the barriers of the ‘old system’ run by those who wanted things to stay as they are. It was indeed dangerous and tricky for Kim. When Trump said Kims tough it’s because he’s survived the old stronghold...and smart because he turned to Trump which immediately broke the China stronghold on Kim. So China had to deal with Trump and Kimi and the s Koreans to fix this.
The hand delivered letters to Trump were NOT just for show. But to bypass the,let’s say, static in the lines of communication. This is also why all the communication lines etc. between the Koreans are being totally reconstructed.
