Lee calls for 'age of peace and cooperation' with N. Korea
SEOUL (Yonhap) - President Lee Myung-bak said Monday that South and North Korea should build mutual trust in order to open up an "age of peace and cooperation" on the divided peninsula.
"Over the past 60 years, the South and North have lived in conflict. Now is the time to overcome it and open up an age of peace and cooperation," Lee said during his Liberation Day speech.
"To this end, it is incumbent for the two sides to build up mutual trust with responsible deeds and a sincere stance. Nothing can be accomplished through provocations. The two sides should bring about peace based on mutual trust, pursuing common prosperity through bilateral cooperation."
