South Korean President Lee Jae-myung emphasized today the need to initiate talks with Pyongyang aimed at formalizing the end of the Korean War. This war, which began in 1950, has not been officially concluded due to the absence of a peace treaty since 1953.

Lee Jae-myung underscored that resuming negotiations is essential for stability on the Korean Peninsula. The statement reflects Seoul's current stance in seeking understanding and normalization of relations with the North.
