With North Korea set to join next month's Winter Olympics in the South, the Seoul government appears to be struggling with how to accommodate a large-scale delegation of North Korean officials and athletes without violating multiple-layered sanctions against Pyongyang.
Some say that the government should consider easing sanctions temporarily as a way to facilitate a thaw in inter-Korean relations through the sporting event. There are still calls to not go so far as to undermine the international sanctions regime that will be critical in applying pressure on the North to give up its nuclear and missile programs.
On Tuesday, senior officials from South Korea and North Korea met for the first time in more than two years at the truce village of Panmunjom to discuss Pyongyang's participation in the Feb. 9-25 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games.
The North offered to send high-ranking officials, cheerleaders, performing artists, taekwondo demonstration teams and journalists in addition to athletes, and the South promised to provide them with necessary conveniences. They will hold working-level talks to work out details.
