During a phone conversation with Mr. Ban Ki-moon on the New Year occasion, President Park Geun-hye also asked the UN to assist to improve the inter-Korean relations through a resumption of dialogue and the resolution of the North Korean nuclear issue and expand aid for the North Korean people's lives. Mr. Ban Ki-moon said he would provide the necessary support and do his best as the U.N. chief to help improve cross-border ties.
