On September 14-15, Vice Minister Kim Ki Woong delivered the opening remarks at the 11th Korea–Germany Unification Advisory Committee.
Vice Minister Kim, acting as the Committee chair, mentioned that the Government considers denuclearization, peace, and prosperity on the Korean Peninsula as some of the top priorities and continues to exert efforts to solve pending issues through inter-Korean dialogue and to normalize the relations and, thereby, take further steps toward unification.
He also affirmed that social and cultural exchanges based on ethnic, historic, and religious culture were being pushed forward without discontinuation even before North Korea decided to denuclearize.
The committee will make every effort to expand this opportunity to cooperate and prepare for unification and integration on top of the countries’ consensus.
