South Korea proposed semiofficial three-way talks to get U.S.-North Korea nuclear negotiations back on track, while Seoul and Washington launched a week of small-scale military exercises that replaced annual war games.
President Moon Jae-in said he will revive his role as mediator between the adversaries after last week’s summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un collapsed without agreement.
“We hope that the two sides will continue their dialogue and that the two leaders will achieve the settlement that was put off this time by meeting again at the earliest date possible,” Moon said in a meeting of his National Security Council.
