Meanwhile, the government decided to support North Korea worth 10 million dollars and about 11.8 billion won. It is used to support infants and young women in North Korea through the World Food Program, which is interpreted as the government's will to improve relations in line with the resumption of trade in North and South Korea that was delivered yesterday (5th).

10 million dollars the government provides to the United Nations World Food Program, WFP, is used to support North Korean infants and young women.

$8 million is used to support nutrition-enhancing biscuits and cereals for infants and pregnant women under the age of 7, and $2 million is used to support food for pregnant women and disabled families who participate in employment projects such as river maintenance.

Remittance will be made during the following week as we decide to apply today (6th).

The WFP $10 million support plan was originally scheduled to be resolved in June, but was put on hold as the North Korean offensive, such as the blasting of a liaison office, began to rise.

The government's decision to apply again in two months emphasizes the will to restore inter-Korean relations.

Kim Jong Un chair, but opened the Political Bureau meeting yesterday. There was no mention of inter-Korean relations.

In addition, sanctions, corona, flooding, and trilateral sanctions, and even the situation after the US presidential election are uncertain, so it seems that they are struggling over the direction of inter-Korean relations.
