North Korea-South Korea Talks

South Korea has said the weapons tests don't help efforts to stabilise peace

Some experts say the South risks conceding its conventional military strength before the North takes any concrete steps toward relinquishing its nuclear weapons

This comes after South Korean President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un met in Pyongyang for a summit

Seoul's Unification Ministry said Tuesday the meeting at a border truce village will discuss ways to carry out peace commitments made between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean President

Hopes for 'positive atmosphere', says South Korean official

On January 5, Pyongyang accepted Seoul's proposal of holding the meeting on to discuss sending North Korean athletes to the Winter Olympics

The first formal talks between North and South Korea in more than two years are set to take place in a border town Tuesday

The main agenda will include how to improve the two Koreas' relations including (the North's participation in) the Winter Games
