Yesterday, the Blue House announced a solution for the two North American nations that have failed to narrow their differences after the breakdown of the Hanoi Talks. The United States has said that it should not be too big a deal and stick to the big deal, but it should show more roadmaps and a timetable for denuclearization. And now it is the turn of the North-South dialogue.

A senior Cheong Wa Dae official said that after the breakdown of the Hanoi Talks, it was not a negative situation.
„Both North Korea and the United States have made tremendous progress to return to their confrontation before 2017,“ he said. „Both sides are willing to negotiate.“
In doing so, it presented a realistic solution to the denuclearization negotiations that North America was off.
Cheong Wa Dae said, „It is hardly realistic to achieve a complete denuclearization goal at a certain time,“ he said. „It is necessary to think again about the so-called ‚All or Nothing‘ strategy.
„We need to make Small Deal a ‚Good Enough Deal‘, a good enough deal, and we need one or two consecutive early harvests,“ he said.
We have made it clear that we need a roadmap to achieve the goal of denuclearizing North Korea.
In addition, we have drawn a line of caution against the so-called „salami tactics“, which is a separate, step-by-step negotiation that is far from the final goal.
It will be interpreted as meaning that we will play a role as mediator and mediator while presenting our own solution to both sides of North America.
He said, „Now it is the turn of the North-South dialogue.“
As we continue our inter-Korean dialogue and exchanges, we will try to talk directly with North Korea through the special envoy to North Korea and the one-point summit.
