Moon open to meeting Kim, but will never accept N Korea's nukes

Seoul

SOUTH Korean President Moon Jae In vowed to never accept North Korea's nuclear programme, while also saying that he was prepared to meet Kim Jong Un under the right conditions.

"Denuclearisation on the Korean Peninsula, which South Korea and North Korea jointly declared in the past, is a position that we could never concede," Mr Moon said on Wednesday during an extended press briefing in Seoul. He added that South Korea backs a peaceful resolution, saying that "war shouldn't be repeated on Korean Peninsula".
