[Sputnik News] Editor’s note:  What isn’t told in the American press is that South Korea’s American stooge president, Park Keun-hye is in jail for “Trump behavior” and this frightening new move toward peace and freedom is at the cost of America reliable stooge military puppet in the region. Trump wanted a new Vietnam in Korea and instead, it is likely that 30,000 American troops will get to come home to their families and get off the welfare rolls.

North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un has expressed his wish to end the history of confrontation on the Korean Peninsula, a spokesman of South Korea’s President Kim Jong-un said Friday.

According to a joint statement, issued after the talks between the two leaders, both Asian nations have agreed to hold talks with the US and China to replace the current ceasefire regime with a peace treaty.

The two countries have agreed to stop all hostile acts toward each other and to transform demilitarized zone into a peace zone, the declaration says.

“South and North Korea reaffirmed the Non-Aggression Agreement that precludes the use of force in any form against each other, and agreed to strictly adhere to this Agreement,” the document says.

The parties have also agreed to create a maritime peace zone around the Northern Limit Line in the Yellow Sea (West Sea) to prevent clashes and guarantee safety for fishermen.

“The two sides agreed to hold frequent meetings between military authorities, including the Defense Ministers Meeting, in order to immediately discuss and solve military issues that arise between them. In this regard, the two sides agreed to first convene military talks at the rank of general in May,” the document said.

The two Koreas have expressed their wish to improve relations, striving for prosperity and peaceful reunification.

“South and North Korea will reconnect the blood relations of the people and bring forward the future of co-prosperity and unification led by Koreans by facilitating comprehensive and groundbreaking advancement in inter-Korean relation,” the document says.

The improvement of relations is “the prevalent desire of the whole nation,” the parties added.
