SEOUL, Feb. 13 (Xinhua) -- South Korean President Moon Jae-in said the United States had shown its willingness to talk with the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), Moon's spokesman said Tuesday.
Moon made the remarks during the summit meeting with Latvian President Raimonds Vejonis, who came to South Korea Thursday and attended the opening ceremony of the 23rd Winter Olympics held in the country's east county of PyeongChang on Friday night.
The South Korean leader said the United States was seeing the talks between South Korea and the DPRK positively and that the U.S. side had shown its intention to talk with the DPRK.
The senior-level, inter-Korean dialogue was held in January, the first such talks in over two years, in the truce village of Panmunjom, where the DPRK agreed to send its athletes and cheerleaders as well as a high-ranking delegation to attend the PyeongChang Olympic Games.
