South Korea’s foreign ministry will dissolve a division responsible for negotiating peace and denuclearization with North Korea, the ministry announced Friday, a move that experts say reflects the Yoon administration’s policy approach emphasizing military deterrence over dialogue.

Under the major overhaul, the ministry will disband the Korean Peninsula Peace Negotiation Headquarters and transfer its two bureaus dedicated to nuclear weapons and diplomacy to a new division, tentatively named the Diplomatic Strategy and Intelligence Headquarters.
