South Korea's president says he will discuss with President Donald Trump next week the issue of a declaration ending the 1950-53 Korean War.
President Moon Jae-in spoke with reporters Thursday after returning home from a three-day trip to North Korea that included his third summit with leader Kim Jong Un.
Moon and Kim are pushing for the end-of-war declaration by December. Moon says he and Kim have agreed such a "political declaration" has nothing to do with any pullout of 28,500 U.S. soldiers stationed in South Korea.
Moon says he will raise the issue with Trump when he meets him next week in New York.
