The 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice not a peace treaty.

President Moon has said North Korea is maintaining its own moratorium on nuclear and long-range missile tests, apparently leaving the door open for dialogue.

On Tuesday, he addressed the UN General Assembly and repeated a call for a declaration to formally end the Korean War.
