North Korea has rejected the South Korean government’s Monday proposal for face-to-face talks to discuss pending issues over inter-Korean cooperation at Mount Kumgang, the Ministry of Unification (MOU) said in a statement on Tuesday.
The response came a day after the South Korean government formally suggested in-person working-level talks between the two sides, in a notice sent to the North’s Korea Asia-Pacific Peace Committee (KAPPC) via the inter-Korean liaison office at Kaesong.
