The leaders of North and South Korea have committed to a permanent end to the threat of war between them.
History was made today when North and South Korea agreed to peace.
Presidents Moon Jae-in of South Korea and Kim Jong Un of North Korea held a joint press conference Wednesday to make an epic announcement: they’re committed to an “era of no war.”
This is the second in a three-day summit the two leaders are holding in an effort to halt the threat of war between the two nations. The two announced that they are committed to peace.
“The world is going to see how this divided nation is going to bring about a new future on its own,” said Jong Un, as reported by CNN .
In a signed agreement, North Korea’s president agreed to visit Seoul, South Korea in the near future. This is an unprecedented visit, as no North Korean leader has ever visited its neighbor to the south. Kim Jong Il, late father of Jong Un, made a promise to visit South Korea during his tenure as North Korea’s leader. He never made good on that promise.
As part of the deal, North Korea will close a missile test facility. North Korea will also close a nuclear complex…but only if the U. S. agrees to do the same thing.
The defense chiefs of both countries also signed a 17-page agreement. In it, the two countries agreed to “cease all hostile acts against each other.
