North Korea has proposed talks with South Korea to be held on Nov. 26 at the truce village on their militarized border, the North's official KCNA news agency said Friday.
The talks, if held, would be the first government-level meeting focused on easing tension since the two sides agreed to improve ties following an armed standoff in August.
The North's Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea, its main agency handling inter-Korean ties, proposed to hold working-level contact for government talks, KCNA said.
