0:35Now PlayingThe United Nations Command has started talks with North Korea’s military on the status of a US solider who crossed the border last week, a top officer told reporters in Seoul without offering further details.
It has been nearly a week since Private Second Class Travis King, 23, made the unusual crossing, with Pyongyang making no mention so far on the fate of the man it whisked away in a van surrounded by North Korean military personnel.
“The first primary concern is Private King’s welfare and the conversation has commenced with the KPA through the mechanisms of the Armistice Agreement,” Lieutenant General Andrew Harrison, the deputy commander for the UN Command said Monday, using an abbreviation for the North Korean People’s Army and referring to the cease-fire deal that ended fighting in the 1950-1953 Korean War.
