President Donald Trump has hailed a decision by North Korea to allow international inspectors to observe a ‘permanent dismantlement’ of its key missile facilities, freeze missile and nuclear testing, and to take other steps toward normalization of relations with South Korea.
The president tweeted late Tuesday: ‘Kim Jong Un has agreed to allow Nuclear inspections, subject to final negotiations, and to permanently dismantle a test site and launch pad in the presence of international experts.
‘In the meantime there will be no Rocket or Nuclear testing.’
Trump also tweeted on Tuesday that North Korea has agreed to conduct searches for the remains of soldiers who went missing during the Korean War.
‘Also, North and South Korea will file a joint bid to host the 2032 Olympics,’ the president tweeted.
‘Very exciting!’
South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in said on Wednesday (local Korea time) that the North would agree to dismantle missile sites and take other steps such as closing its main Yongbyon nuclear complex if the United States takes reciprocal measures.
North and South Korea agreed that the Korean Peninsula should turn into a ‘land of peace without nuclear weapons and nuclear threats,’ Moon said following the conclusion of his summit talks with the North Korean leader.
Speaking at a joint press conference with Moon, Kim said he will visit the South’s capital Seoul ‘in the near future.’
