South Korean President Park Geun Hye said she is willing to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, and the country’s nuclear weapons program wouldn’t be an obstacle to holding the first Korean summit since 2007.

“There are no preconditions,” including nuclear disarmament, for a summit between the two countries, Park said today at a televised news conference, warning Kim should drop his nuclear pursuit in order to achieve an eventual unification.
