Three Democratic members of the US House of Representatives – Brad Sherman, Diana Titus and Gerald Connolly – have sent US President Donald Trump a letter requesting measures to resume reunions for Korean families that remain divided by the Korean War (1950-53). The letter states that around 100,000 US citizens currently have relatives residing in North Korea, and that the majority of them have not seen their families since the war. The letter urges Trump to take action on the reunions on a humanitarian basis. (Yonhap News)
