Details of the discussions weren&#8217;t immediately available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The South Korean delegation arrived in Pyongyang on Thursday for peace talks and to celebrate the anniversary of a 2007 summit between the Koreas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During their most recent summit in Pyongyang last month Kim and Moon said they agreed to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2018\/10\/01\/koreas-begin-removing-land-mines-from-the-dmz-to-ease-military-tensions\/\">reduce the conventional military threat between them<\/a> and hold another summit in Seoul, possibly within the year. North Korea also said it might dismantle its main Nyongbyon nuclear complex if the United States takes unspecified corresponding measures.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/flashpoints\/2018\/09\/26\/small-question-big-consequences-is-north-korea-a-nuclear-power\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"161\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/AP18264804968337.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Small question, big consequences: Is North Korea a nuclear power?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Pyongyang can probably arm its short- and mid-range missiles with nuclear warheads, experts say, but what about long-range nukes?<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday\u2019s meeting came as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/2018\/10\/03\/pompeo-backs-away-from-denuclearization-goal-for-north-korea\/\">U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo <\/a>prepares to make his fourth visit to Pyongyang on Sunday with the aim of setting up a second summit between Kim and President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to government officials, the South Korean delegation includes lawmakers, civic and religious leaders and the son of late South Korean President Roh Moo-hyun, who participated in the 2007 summit with North Korea&#8217;s then-leader Kim Jong Il, the father of current ruler Kim Jong Un.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The South Koreans took part earlier Friday in a joint celebration marking the anniversary of the 2007 summit, where the participants issued a statement that included a vague call for a denuclearized Korean Peninsula and urged more cross-border exchanges and cooperation between the rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Koreas in past months have held a flurry of talks, including three summits, amid a global diplomatic push to resolve the nuclear standoff with North Korea. The North has also used its diplomacy with Seoul to get to Washington, resulting in a June summit between Kim and Trump in Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Trump-Kim summit produced an aspirational statement on a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula without describing when and how it would occur. North Korea has been playing hard ball since then, accusing the United States of making &#8220;unilateral and gangster-like&#8221; demands on denuclearization and insisting that sanctions should be lifted before any progress in nuclear talks occurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has left Seoul scrambling to keep alive a positive atmosphere for dialogue and lobbying for another meeting between Trump and Kim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pompeo said Wednesday he\u2019s optimistic he\u2019ll come away with a plan for a second summit between Trump and Kim and progress on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/flashpoints\/2018\/09\/30\/north-korea-foreign-minister-peace-possible-but-only-if-us-ends-hostility\/\">\u201cpathway for denuclearization.\u201d<\/a> However, he distanced himself from an earlier stated goal of getting North Korea to abandon its nuclear weapons by the end of Trump\u2019s four-year term in January 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Korean leaders say they are working to ease the conventional military threat between them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":93199,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":8,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[101,8,12,25],"tags":[],"coauthors":[867],"class_list":["post-49361","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-flashpoints","category-news","category-newsletters"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"C5XZIBWJNZDKFL7Y5TON3XGB3Q","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-military\/2018\/10\/05\/koreas-hold-high-level-peace-talks-ahead-of-pompeos-visit-to-set-up-summit\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
