On Sept. 19 2018, North Korean Defense Minister No Kwang Chol and South Korean Defense Minister Song Young-moo signed an Agreement on Reconciliation, Non-Aggression, Exchanges and Cooperation, known as the “Agreement on the Implementation of the Historic Panmunjom Declaration in the Military Domain,” or more commonly known as the Comprehensive Military Agreement (CMA). The purpose of the CMA was to decrease military tension between both North and South Korea along the line of contact and a possible future arms control. The agreement called for the removal of landmines, guard posts, weapons, and disarming the personnel in the Joint Security Area (JSA) from both sides of the North-South Korean border. The agreement also called for the creation of joint military buffer zones.
