An historic summit between the North and South Korean leaders has ended with an unprecedented declaration aimed at bringing permanent peace to the Korean Peninsula.

The atmosphere between the two was warm throughout a busy day of ceremonies and negotiations.

Kim Jong-un became the first North Korean leader to set foot in South Korea since the end of the Korean war 65 years ago.

The two sides also pledged to work towards ridding the peninsula of nuclear weapons.
