It's time for South Korea to take steps to thaw the chilled relations with the North, North Korea said Saturday, claiming it has done all it can.
"We have done everything we were supposed to for the improvement of North-South relations and now it is time for the South Korean government to reciprocate," Uriminzokkiri, the North's official Web site, said, citing Rodong Sinmun, a newspaper published by the ruling Workers' Party.
It claimed the Seoul government has not done even a "little bit" to help improve cross-border ties.
"If the South Korean government is even a bit interested in North-South relations, it will naturally have to show a positive reaction to our fair actions," is said.
