Moon and Kim met in Panmunjom on April 27 for the first time for the third inter-Korean summit since 2000, signing the Panmunjom Declaration in which the two sides agreed to improve inter-Korean relations, ease military tensions and completely denuclearize the Korean Peninsula.

The declaration carries three main themes: the establishment of a peace regime, efforts to ease military tensions and co-prosperity and unification of the two Koreas.

Moon and Kim also agreed to transform the demilitarized zone into a peace zone and the west sea border area into a maritime peace zone.
