[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] On the 16th, the Ministry of Unification stated regarding the issue of supporting North Korea with COVID-19 vaccines, "We will discuss it when we can gain national support."


An official from the Ministry of Unification responded to reporters asking whether they had discussed the issue of COVID-19 vaccine support to North Korea with other ministries, saying, "At this stage, there has been no specific review," and made the statement.



Additionally, in line with the easing of COVID-19 social distancing measures, they announced that the schedule for resuming the Panmunjom tour program, which was suspended in December last year, will be announced after consultation with the United Nations Command. Facilities such as Odusan Unification Observatory, Imjingak Peace Nuri Park Abductee Memorial Hall, and the South-North Integrated Culture Center will also partially adjust visitor limits and consider operating small-scale face-to-face programs.
