  • 6 years ago
Let's start with Kim Jong-un's latest message.
The North Korean leader has expressed his desire to continue efforts to improve relations with South Korea in light of the North's participation in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.
Speaking to the high-level delegation that visited the South for the Games on their return, North Korean state media reports that Kim said "it's important to continue making good results by further livening up the warm climate of reconciliation and dialogue created by...the Winter Olympics as a momentum."
He said he was satisfied with the results of the delegation's trip, and also expressed thanks to South Korea for hosting them.
The delegation led by the nominal head of the state, Kim Yong-nam, and the leader's sister, Kim Yo-jung, returned to Pyongyang on Monday after a four-day trip, during which they met with President Moon Jae-in a number of times and passed on Kim Jong-un's invitation to visit the North.
