Seoul to promote 1.5-track dialogue in bid to restart N. Korea-U.S. nuclear talks

Two Koreas also set to hold military talks this month, defense minister says

South Korea will push ahead with plans to hold 1.5-track talks between DPRK officials and experts as a means to resume now-stalled North Korea-U.S. negotiations "expeditiously,” the country's foreign minister said on Monday.
