SEOUL, South Korea (AP) – The most recent round talks between the rival Koreas meant to defuse a building crisis has hit 24 hours as South Korea’s president vows a hard line.
Park Geun-hye on Monday said that without a clear North Korean apology for a land mine attack that maimed two soldiers, anti-Pyongyang propaganda broadcasts will continue.
Her strong words provide a good hint at why the talks, which started Saturday evening and whose second session began Sunday afternoon and were still going 24 hours later, have dragged on.
