Moon Jae In and Kim Jong Un Embrace as Third Inter-Korea Summit Gets Under Way
(PYONGYANG, North Korea) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has greeted South Korean President Moon Jae-in upon his arrival in Pyongyang for their third summit this year to improve ties and help resolve the nuclear standoff.
Moon and Kim embraced at the Sunan International Airport on Tuesday as thousands of North Koreans cheered and waved flowers, North Korean flags and a blue-and-white map symbolizing a unified peninsula.
Moon and Kim and their wives shook the hands of North Korean and South Korean officials before they were saluted by a North Korean ceremonial guard.
They then inspected goose-stepping soldiers, and Moon shook hands with North Korean civilians and bowed deeply to them.
