"What I aim to achieve is peace. It is not the kind of temporal peace that can be swayed by international politics but an irreversible and permanent peace that will not be affected by the international situation. I believe that building lasting peace will pave the way for South and North Koreas to become the owners of the Korean Peninsula affairs without being swept away by international situations and go toward economic co-prosperity and unification." 

Speaking to his key secretaries during a meeting on Monday, President Moon Jae-in revealed his plans for the inter-Korean summit set to begin on Tuesday in Pyongyang. 

Moon said the focus of the upcoming inter-Korean talks will be preventing armed conflicts between the two Koreas and ways to promote nuclear dialogue between Washington and Pyongyang.

The South Korean president also said that he will hold candid discussions with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on ways to find common ground between the U.S.' demand for disarmament measures and the North's call for security guarantees.
