New FM says peace process with North Korea not choice but must

ABCDEFG
SEOUL, Feb. 9 (Yonhap) -- New Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong stressed Tuesday that the peace process with North Korea is a "must-go path" for South Korea as he was sworn in as Seoul's top diplomat vowing to work closely with the United States and other key partners to achieve the goal.
"Our diplomacy is faced with a difficult situation. We are at a point in time where preemptive and strategic diplomacy is required as uncertainty in the international situation is deepening," Chung said in his inauguration speech.
"We have a task to realize complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula and bring a lasting peace. The Korean Peninsula peace process is not a choice but a path that we must take," he said.
