said here today.
The offer of four-day talks from January 21 came in response to Seoul`s earlier proposal that the cabinet-level meeting should be held from January 14 to discuss inter-Korean rapprochement and other pending issues. "North Korea today sent a counter-proposal to hold inter-Korean talks January 21 to 24," a South Korean unification ministry official said.
The talks are expected to cover the ongoing nuclear stand-off between North Korea and the United States, officials in the south have said previously.
