Kim Jong Un reconnects cross-border hotline

NORTH Korean leader Kim Jong Un reopened the cross-border hotline to Seoul today for the first time in two years.
The reconnection followed Mr Kim’s offer of talks with South Korea, which was made in his New Year’s Day address, ostensibly on participation in this year’s Winter Olympics there.
That proposal was accepted by South Korean Unification Minister Cho Myoung Gyon on Tuesday.
