SEOUL, June 11 (Xinhua) — The Republic of Korea (ROK) has stopped broadcasting propaganda from loudspeakers in the area bordering the DPRK, the ROK Defense Ministry said Wednesday.
The ministry said in a statement that the suspension of the broadcast was a step toward fulfilling President Lee Jae-myung’s promise to restore trust in inter-Korean relations and peace on the Korean Peninsula.
Seoul stopped broadcasting anti-North Korean loudspeakers on Wednesday afternoon, media reported.
Lee Jae-myung, who took office on June 4, vowed during the election campaign to halt the broadcasts, which were resumed last June in retaliation for balloons filled with garbage and manure sent from North Korea. –0–
