Unofficial talks held between US, DPRK

A group of former US diplomats held closed door talks at the weekend with senior Pyongyang officials. The two-day meeting in Kuala Lumpur was the latest in a series of unofficial talks commonly referred to as Track 2 that are closely monitored in the absence of any official contact between the United States and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. The Track 2 talks have been taking place sporadically for years.
