South Korea aiming to declare end to Korean War within this year: President Moon

문재인 대통령 '남북미, 신속한 후속 조치... 올해 안 종전선언' President Moon Jae-in says his administration's goal is to declare an official end to the Korean War by the end of this year. It was the 65 years ago when the combatants signed an armistice, so the conflict has, until now, never officially ended. In an interview Wednesday with the Singapore daily The Strait Times, President Moon said he'll closely consult with North Korea and the U.S. regarding the timing and formalities. He said it'll be a significant move in ending hostilities between the two Koreas, in line with the terms laid out in the Panmunjom Declaration. He said there have been many improvements in inter-Korean relations this year that would've been unthinkable in the past,... and now is the time to seize the momentum to establish peace and co-prosperity through the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. President Moon said he firmly believes the window of opportunity for reunification will open as inter-Korean relations gradually improve.
