SEOUL, Aug. 18 (Xinhua) — President of the Republic of Korea (ROK) Lee Jae-myung on Monday ordered preparations for the phased implementation of existing inter-Korean agreements, his office said.
At a cabinet meeting, Lee Jae-myung ordered relevant departments to prepare for the phased implementation of existing agreements with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), starting with those that can be implemented.
The South Korean president said the ROK will steadily take steps to reduce tensions by maintaining ironclad readiness, stressing that small steps will restore mutual trust, expand the path to peace and ultimately lay the foundation for the joint development of both countries on the Korean Peninsula.
Lee Jae-myung's statement followed a pledge he made last week during a speech marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Korean Peninsula from Japanese colonial rule. The president pledged to take consistent measures to ease tensions and restore trust with the DPRK.
He also promised to take gradual steps to restore the Sept. 19, 2018, military agreement signed at the inter-Korean summit to prevent accidental clashes and strengthen military trust between the two countries. –0–
