South Korean President Moon Jae-In today said he would be willing to sit down with the nuclear-armed North's leader Kim Jong-Un, as the international community welcomed an agreement for Pyongyang to send its athletes to the Winter Olympics in the South.<br/><br/>Pyongyang – which boycotted the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul – yesterday agreed to send athletes and officials to the event as North and South held their first formal talks for two years at Panmunjom in the Demilitarised Zone. <br/><br/>Moon told a press conference that yesterday was the first step and he thinks they had a good start. He said bringing North Korea to talks for denuclearisation is the next step that must be taken. <br/><br/>Moon said he was willing to hold a summit "at any time", as long as it was "under the right conditions". He said it cannot, however, be a meeting for meeting's sake. To hold a summit, the right conditions must be created and certain outcomes must be guaranteed, Moon added.
