SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - South Korea added pressure on North Korea to comply with an international disarmament agreement on Friday, refusing the impoverished nation's demand to restore full aid shipments until after its main nuclear reactor is shut down.
At the first high-level talks between the two Koreas since the North's underground nuclear test in October, the communist nation "agreed to make joint efforts for a smooth implementation" of its pledge last month to take initial steps toward dismantling its atomic program, according to a final statement.
The North and South also agreed to resume family reunions of relatives split by their border and planned test runs of railway lines between the countries.
