South and North Korean officials will meet Monday to prepare for a summit between South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
South Korea’s Unification Ministry, which handles relations between the two Koreas, announced the meeting Thursday, The Associated Press reported.
The planned summit between Kim and Moon will be the third such meeting in recent months. The two leaders met in April and held a more informal meeting in May. The following month, Kim attended an historic summit with President Trump in Singapore.
An official at the Unification Ministry told the AP that the officials Monday will discuss ways to advance agreements Kim and Moon made at an earlier summit. Those agreements are aimed at reducing tensions between the two countries and included holding a Korean summit in the fall in Pyongyang.
