S Korea says North has proposed new air route

South Korea said today that North Korea has proposed a new air route through the two countries for improvement of relations between the neighbors following a breakthrough meeting of their leaders last month.

At the historic summit, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had agreed to end military hostilities against the South in every area, including airspace.

United Nations aviation agency directors will visit North Korea this week to discuss a request by Pyongyang to open new air routes to South Korea.
