South Korea's president has called for a swift resumption of diplomatic talks between the US and North Korea to resolve peninsula tensions.

South Korean President Lee Jae-myung has advocated for a prompt restart of negotiations between the United States and North Korea.

Lee urged diplomatic action aimed at leveraging Donald Trump's established personal connection with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to break the ongoing deadlock on the Korean Peninsula. The proposal seeks to reinvigorate high-level dialogue that stalled following previous summit attempts between Washington and Pyongyang.

By encouraging both nations to return to the negotiating table, the South Korean administration aims to address regional security concerns and reduce longstanding military tensions.
