A commemorative ceremony was held on Saturday to mark the 66th anniversary of the signing of the Korean War armistice agreement... at the inter-Korean truce village of Panmunjeom.
During the event, General Robert Abrams, commander of the U.S. Forces Korea and UN Command,... said the U.S. and South Korean militaries will continue to support measures for dialogue, lasting peace and the final, fully verified denuclearization of North Korea.
"History has been made here, where just a few short weeks ago, the President of the United States was able to step across into the demarcation line into North Korea, an historic first, and where President Moon shared tea with Kim Jong-un at the blue bridge forging a new path for their two nations. Here now, the guard posts are unarmed and surveillance feeds are shared."
Abrams said none of this would have been possible without the armistice or without those who sacrificed their lives,... and that bringing home the remains of American wardead is a solemn obligation.
He vowed to remain committed to the preservation of the armistice... while enabling actions that will one day pave the way to long-awaited peace.
