South Korea’s President Moon Rules Out War on Korean Peninsula | Offers to send special envoy to North Korea if tests stop
Having campaigned centrally on a return to diplomacy with North Korea, South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in has found himself awkwardly paddling against the current since he took office, watching as the US and North Korea continued to raise the stakes against one another.
Marking is 100th day in office, however, Moon appears to be increasingly assertive about his position, flat out ruling out any war on the Korean Peninsula in comments today, and reiterating that dialogue must resume at some point.
Moon even made a specific offer, saying that he was willing to send a special envoy to Pyongyang for talks if North Korea promised to stop testing missiles and nuclear weapons.
