North Korea, South Korea to hold talks on May 16

Seoul, May 15 South and North Korea have agreed to hold high-level inter-Korea talks on May 16, affirmed South Korea's Unification Ministry.

"The South and North will hold a high-level inter-Korea meeting on May 16 in the Peace House in Panmunjom, to examine the execution of 'Panmunjom Declaration for Peace, Prosperity, and Unification of the Korean Peninsula," a few media reports cited the Unification Ministry, as saying, in a statement.

The two sides are likely going to talk about measures related to the implementation of agreements reached at the intra-Korean summit in April.

The meet is scheduled at the border village of Panmunjom in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), the world's most intensely watched border, separating the two nations.

According to several media reports, Wednesday's inter-Korea talks will see North Korea send a 29-part designation drove by Ri Son-gwon, director of the 'Board of trustees for the Peaceful Reunification of the nation'.

From South Korea, Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon will lead a group of five.

This comes in front of North Korea's booked disassembly of its atomic test site in the not so distant future in an offer to maintain its past vow to suspend atomic tests.

A ceremony for the dismantling of the office purportedly has been planned between May 23-25.

It is pertinent to say that the declaration of the dismantlement of the atomic test site came after US President Donald Trump reported that he will hold a meet with Kim Jong-un in Singapore on June 12.
