The leaders of North and South Korea are set to meet on Friday. This will be the first meeting between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in. The world is wondering how much their talks will deal with North Korea’s program for developing nuclear-armed missiles. Over the weekend, North Korea announced it would suspend nuclear tests and testing of intercontinental ballistic missiles. The North also said it plans to close its nuclear test area. But the announcement did not say whether it would give up its nuclear weapons or stop production of missiles. On Monday, South Korea halted broadcasts of propaganda messages and Korean pop songs across the border with the North.
