News South Korea will announce plans for food aid shipment to North soon: ministerDPRK still has a "firm commitment" to implement inter-Korean declarations, Kim Yeon-chul says
South Korea will “in the near future” lay out detailed plans for sending food aid to North Korea, unification minister Kim Yeon-chul said on Wednesday. The ROK Ministry of Unification (MOU) will make an announcement after “comprehensively reviewing” the issue, Kim told press following a visit to the joint inter-Korean liaison office in Kaesong — his first to the site since taking up the job in April. Kim’s comments come a day after U.S. President Donald Trump was reported to have given South Korean President Moon Jae-in an informal green light to send humanitarian food aid to the North.
