The South Korean government has approved plans for 바카라사이트 nation¡¯s most prestigious institution to open talks on student exchanges with North Korea¡¯s Kim Il Sung University, according to reports.

South Korea¡¯s Ministry of Unification gave 바카라사이트 green light?for students at Seoul National University to contact North Korean counterparts, according to students at 바카라사이트 institution, .

¡°The approval, coming amid increasingly warming ties between 바카라사이트 two Koreas, could pave 바카라사이트 way for 바카라사이트 school¡¯s first student exchanges with a North Korean university since its foundation in 1946,¡± it added.

The SNU students have started a ¡°promotion committee for inter-Korean exchanges¡± with 바카라사이트 university¡¯s council and filed a request with 바카라사이트 ministry in May.

¡°After 바카라사이트 ministry, which handles inter-Korean affairs, approved its plan, 바카라사이트 SNU committee said it will send a fax message to 바카라사이트 Pyongyang-based Kim Il Sung University as early as next week to begin discussions on student exchanges,¡± Yonhap reported.

Exchange programmes could include ¡°joint exploration of historical sites in Pyongyang by students from both universities¡±, 바카라사이트 students are expected to suggest. About 100 SNU students are reported to want to take part in exchanges with 바카라사이트 North.

The move comes after a warming of relations between 바카라사이트 two countries and 바카라사이트 historic meeting between North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and US president Donald Trump.
