El CMI insta a sustituir el Acuerdo de Armisticio de la guerra de Corea por un tratado de paz

El Acuerdo de Armisticio de la guerra, de 70 años de antigüedad, debería ser sustituido por un tratado de paz, instó el Comité Central del Consejo Mundial de Iglesias (CMI) en una declaración pública. Coincidiendo con un nuevo aumento de las tensiones y los enfrentamientos en la península coreana, recordamos que este año se conmemora el 70º aniversario del Acuerdo de Armisticio de 1953, que estableció un alto el fuego, pero no el fin formal de la guerra de Corea,” declara el texto. “Oramos para que la paz y el diálogo pongan fin a este peligroso ciclo, y por la desnuclearización no solo de la península de Corea, sino de todo el mundo”.
