| North and South Korea have agreed to hold military talks, a joint statement said, after the two Koreas engaged in formal dialogue on Tuesday for the first time in more than two years. | |
| North Korea has also announced it will send a high-ranking delegation along with athletes, journalists and a cheering squad to the Winter Olympics in South Korea next month. | |
