Nearly 70 Percent of Americans Support Peace Agreement with North Korea: Poll
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - Nearly 70 percent of Americans support negotiating a peace agreement with North Korea that would formally put an end to the Korean War, a recent survey showed on Tuesday.
The poll of 1,009 people by the US-based think tank Data for Progress showed that 67 percent favored concluding a peace treaty with the communist nation, with 29 percent of them saying they "strongly support" such a deal.
Republicans showed stronger support at 76 percent than Democrats at 63 percent, Yonhap news agency reported.
The survey is based on interviews with self-identified registered voters in the US and was conducted by the London-based research data group YouGov last month.
At their first summit in Singapore last year, US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un agreed to work toward building a lasting peace regime. But negotiations have stalled since the breakdown of the Hanoi summit in February and working-level talks in Stockholm early this month.
