Former President Jimmy Carter is offering to sit down with North Korea's Kim Jong-un, according to a retired University of Georgia professor – who has passed the word to a Korean newspaper.
Park Han-shik, an emeritus professor of international affairs at the University of Georgia, reported having the conversation with Carter, according to the Korea JoongAn Daily:
Park, a prominent scholar of North Korea-related issues who has traveled to Pyongyang over 50 times, visited Carter, who received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his work with the Atlanta-based Carter Center, at the former president's home in Plains, Georgia, on Sept. 28.
We’ve got a request for confirmation into the Carter Center.
