\"\"International desk: South Korean President Moon Jae-in said Wednesday his country will deepen trust with the Democratic People\u2019s Republic of Korea (DPRK) in the upcoming summit with top DPRK leader Kim Jong Un.<\/p>\n

Moon made the remarks during a ceremony to mark the 73rd anniversary of the Korean Peninsula\u2019s liberation from the 1910-45 Japanese colonization,
\naccording to the presidential Blue House.<\/p>\n

After the high-level talks earlier this week, the two Koreas agreed to hold the third Moon-Kim summit in Pyongyang before the end of September. Moon and
\nKim met in April and May at the border village of Panmunjom, promising to meet in Pyongyang this fall.<\/p>\n

Moon said he will take a dauntless step, through his summit with the DPRK leader, toward the complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula as well
\nas the war-ending declaration and peace treaty.<\/p>\n

The peninsula remains in a technical state of war as the 1950-53 Korean War ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.<\/p>\n

Agreements can be sincerely implemented only after deep-rooted distrust is eliminated between Seoul and Pyongyang and between Pyongyang and Washington, Moon said.<\/p>\n

Moon vowed to build deeper trust relations with the DPRK, while making best efforts to facilitate a denuclearization dialogue between Pyongyang and
\nWashington.<\/p>\n

The South Korean leader stressed that improved inter-Korean ties are not a byproduct of the enhanced DPRK-U.S. relations, but an impetus for the peninsula\u2019s denuclearization, saying nuclear threats were eased when inter-Korean relations were good in the past.<\/p>\n

Moon and Kim held their first summit on April 27 in Panmunjom, agreeing to the complete denuclearization. It was followed by the inter-Korean summit on
\nMay 26, eventually leading to the historic summit between the DPRK leader and U.S. President Donald Trump in Singapore on June 12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
