(MENAFN) A senior presidential official reported Sunday that during last week's summit, President Moon Jae-in and Chinese President Xi Jinping "completely overcame the awkwardness" which originated over the U.S. missile defense system deployment.
The summit, according to the official, established significant basis on reaching a solution about tensions on the Korean Peninsula as the two leaders settled on four key principles in handling the issue.
The official confirmed "I think the two leaders completely overcame the awkwardness over the issue of THAAD, even though the THAAD issue isn't resolved completely, the frequency and intensity with which China raised the issue became markedly lower."
