TWO KOREAS TO HOLD WORKING-LEVEL MILITARY TALKS MONDAY.
SEOUL, Oct. 2 Asia Pulse - South and North Korea plan to hold military talks this week, the first since the North fired seven missiles in July, the South's Defense Ministry said Sunday.
"North Korea suggested a meeting between the chief delegates to the working-level inter-Korean military talks through a telephone message on Sept. 28, and we informed it two days later of our decision to accept the proposal," the ministry said.
The one-day meeting is to take place on Monday at in the truce village of Panmunjom inside the demilitarized zone dividing the two Koreas, it added.
It will be the first inter-Korean military talks since they held the fourth round of general-level talks in May, and also the first inter-Korean contact in almost three months.
The agenda of the forthcoming talks remains unknown, as the North just said it wants to discuss existing military agreements between the two Koreas.
"I have no idea yet what the North wants to talk about," said Col. Moon Sung-mook, chief of the North Korea policy team at the South Korean Defense Ministry.
Moon is Seoul's chief delegate to the working-level military talks with Pyongyang.
