The senior-level dialogue would be held on October 15 at the Peace House, a building in the truce village of Panmunjom, RoK. The RoK’s delegation would be led by Unification Minister Cho Myoung-gyon.
During the talks, the two sides would discuss ways to implement the Pyongyang Declaration and determine schedule for the follow-up working-level dialogues, according to the unification ministry.
The ministry said the RoK’s government would speed up the implementation of the Panmunjom Declaration and the Pyongyang Declaration to advance the inter-Korean relations to a higher level, while continuing efforts for peace and prosperity of the Korean Peninsula.
The Panmunjom Declaration was signed by RoK’s President Moon Jae-in and top DPRK leader Kim Jong-un after their first summit in April at the border village. The Pyongyang Declaration was inked by Moon and Kim last month in Pyongyang.
