(UTV|COLOMBO) – North Korea’s leader Kim Jong-un has invited South Korea’s President Moon Jae-in to Pyongyang.
It would be the first summit in more than a decade between Korean leaders.
Mr Moon said the Koreas should “make it happen” and encouraged the north to return to negotiations with the US.
The handwritten invitation was delivered by Mr Kim’s influential sister, Kim Yo-jong, at a landmark meeting in the presidential palace in Seoul, as the Winter Olympics opened.
Ms Kim and the North’s ceremonial head of state Kim Yong-nam made up the most senior delegation from the North to visit the South since the Korean War in the 1950s.
