(VOVWORLD) - North Korea and South Korea decided Tuesday not to hold additional bilateral high-level talks to prepare for the summit slated for later this week, a Seoul official said.
The official made it clear that should there be a need for additional consultations, the two sides could hold discussions when Pyongyang's advance team comes for a rehearsal at the summit venue in the border truce village of Panmunjom on Wednesday.
During high-level talks last month, Seoul and Pyongyang agreed on three agenda items: denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, establishing peace and improving inter-Korean relations. They also agreed to hold additional high-level talks if necessary to flesh out the agenda.
