PANMUNJOM, Korea (AP) - The two Koreas opened high-level military talks Tuesday, with a disputed sea border off the divided peninsula's west coast likely to remain a key sticking point.
Two-star generals are representing each side in three days of meetings at the truce village of Panmunjom in the middle of the Demilitarized Zone running between North Korea and South Korea.
The talks — the highest-level regular dialogue channel between the two militaries — are aimed at following up on agreements reached at a previous session in May. They include setting up a joint fishing area around the disputed maritime border off the peninsula's west coast and preparing security arrangements for joint economic projects near the border.
