Koreas make nuclear pledge after summit

International Desk: The leaders of North and South Korea have agreed to work to rid the peninsula of nuclear weapons after holding an historic summit.

The announcement was made by the North's Kim Jong-un and Moon Jae-in of South Korea after talks at the border.

The two also agreed to push towards turning the armistice that ended the Korean War in 1953 into a peace treaty this year.

It comes just months after warlike rhetoric from North Korea.
