South and North Korea complete field verification of the withdrawal of GPs

On December 12, the South and North Korean military authorities completed mutual verification of the demolition of the 11 guard posts that were withdrawn on a pilot basis in accordance with the military agreement signed on September 19.

This is the first time for South and North Korean soldiers to make a path within the demilitarized zone (DMZ) and cross the military demarcation line (MDL) peacefully since the nation was divided. This is a significant action that shows the two sides’ commitments to implementing the military agreement.

This field verification is a milestone in the easing of military tensions and building trust on the Korean Peninsula.
