US Hopes Ex-Pres. NK Trip to Help Nuke Talks
The U.S. State Department says it expects former South Korean President Kim Dae-jung's planned visit to North Korea next month will help the six-way nuclear progess and inter-Korean ties.
Department spokesman Sean McCormack told a Monday briefing that Washington has consistently encouraged contacts between the two Koreas.
Kim went to Pyongyang for the first-ever inter-Korean summit in 2000.
Seoul officials hope his second visit will help resuscitate the stalled nuclear dialogue.
