The federal government has authorized a request by civic teams to contact North Korea to supply humanitarian help in reference to final month’s flooding alongside the Amnok River.
Throughout a briefing on Friday, the Ministry of Unification’s deputy spokesperson Kim In-ae mentioned, the federal government determined that it is vital for North Korean residents affected by flood harm to return to their every day lives as quickly as potential.
Kim added that regardless of the present state of inter-Korean relations, Seoul has determined to permit the civic teams to contact the North to allow them to present flood aid.
Earlier this month the federal government proposed supporting flood restoration efforts in North Korea via the Korean Pink Cross, and different civic teams responded with presents to supply humanitarian help.
Nevertheless, Pyongyang is at present rejecting Seoul’s proposal in addition to presents of help from China and worldwide organizations.
