韩国和朝鲜确定历史性双边峰会日期

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and South Korean President Moon Jae-in will hold a bilateral summit on April 27.

The date for the historic meeting was set Thursday during a meeting between envoys from both Koreas in the border truce village of Panmunjonm, located in the Demilitarized Zone that has separated the two rivals since the 1950-53 civil war.

The agreement on the inter-Korean summit was reached just days after Kim Jong Un made a surprise visit to China, his first international trip since taking power in 2011 after the death of his father, Kim Jong Il. China said Kim confirmed his commitment to denuclearize the Korean peninsula and engage in talks with South Korea and the United States during his talks with President Xi Jingping.

North and South Korean envoys will meet again next Wednesday, April 4, to finalize the details for the Kim-Moon summit.

朝鲜领导人金正恩和韩国总统文在寅将于4月27号举行双边峰会。

朝鲜和韩国的特使星期四在朝鲜半岛南北之间非军事区的板门店停战村会谈时确定了具有历史意义的南北峰会的日期。自从1905年到1953年的朝鲜战争以来，朝鲜半岛的南北一直分为两个对立的国家。

双方商定峰会日期的数天前，金正恩出人意料地访问了中国。这是金正恩在他父亲金正日去世后2011年掌权以来的第一次出国访问。中国说，金正恩在与中国国家主席习近平会谈时确认他将致力于朝鲜半岛去核化以及将与韩国和美国举行会谈。

朝鲜和韩国的特使将于4月4号星期三再次会谈，最后敲定金文峰会的细节。
