Title: Two Koreas to discuss reopening industrial park Monday
Officials from the two sides will convene their first management committee meeting for the factory zone today at North Korea's border town of Gaeseong.
The issue of nailing down the exact date of resuming operation at the joint industrial park, ... which came to a halt five months ago, ... will be on the table.
While Pyongyang wants businesses to restart as soon as possible, Seoul wants to ensure the two sides take the time to talk about how to make future operation more fruitful.
Seoul and Pyongyang agreed to set up the new committee last month to prevent future shutdowns by overseeing the protection of South Korean workers and goods at the complex, investment and management..., as well as the park's global competitiveness.
Title: "Kim Jong-un willing to discuss denuclearization": Witt
North Korea expert Joel Witt says the reclusive state's leader Kim Jong-un is serious about discussing denuclearization with regional powers.
In an interview with South Korea's Yonhap News Agency, the former U.S. State Department official said there has been a change in Pyongyang's stance on its nuclear issue.
He says that,... while the North previously pushed for economic growth and development of nuclear weapons simultaneously, Kim Jong-un has made creating a peaceful international environment a new priority.
Witt emphasized this change in policy was announced on June 16th by Pyongyang's National Defence Commission.
As such, Witt says it's important for Washington to open dialogue with Pyongyang ... as the communist state is likely willing to discuss denuclearization of the country.
