South Korea offered Monday to hold high-level talks with North Korea next week on the reunion of families separated by the 1950-53 Korean War.

In a fax message to Pyongyang, Seoul proposed that another round of talks with Pyongyang take place at the truce village of Panmunjom on Aug. 19, a South Korean government official said.

The South hopes to discuss a possible family reunion event on the occasion of the upcoming Chuseok holiday on Sept. 8, the official said. (Yonhap)


남북 고위급접촉 19일 판문점 개최 北에 제의

정부, 이산가족 상봉 등 '쌍방 관심사' 논의하자 제안

정부가 11일 북한에 남북 고위급 접촉을 오는 19일 판문점에서 개최하자고 전격 제의했다.

정부 관계자는 이날 '오늘 오전 우리측은 김규현 수석대표 명의의 통지문을 통해 북한측에 제2차 남북고위급접촉 개최를 제의했다'고 밝혔다.

우리측은 통지문에서 고위급 접촉 날짜와 장소로 이달 19일 판문점 북측 지역 통일각을 제시하면서 북측이 편리한 날짜가 있다면 제시해달라고 요청했다.

우리측은 또 이번 고위급 접촉에서 추석 계기 이산가족 상봉 문제를 비롯한 쌍방의 관심 사항을 논의하기를 희망한다는 입장을 전달했다고 통일부가 전했다.

남북은 지난 2월 판문점에서 박근혜 정부 출범 후 첫 고위급 접촉을 갖고 ▲ 남북관계 개선 ▲ 상호 비방중상 중단 ▲ 이산가족 상봉 진행 등 3개 사항에 합의한 바 있다. (연합뉴스)
