First Military Hot Line to be Set up Between ROK and DPRK

DPRK and ROK came to a tentative agreement Tuesday to set up a military telephone hot line in the event of an unintentional military clash and the need to evacuate casualties in the Demilitarized Zone, where the two countries will be reconnecting a railway, a Defense Ministry official said in Seoul.

If approved, it will be the first military hot line between the two countries.

The draft agreement was reached at a meeting between military officers from both sides to discuss the reconnection of the cross-border railway.

A final agreement on the hot line is likely to be reached in the third round of talks.

This meeting has been temporarily set for Dec. 21 in the northern side of the border village of Panmunjom.
