North and South Korean officials have struck a deal after negotiations to end tensions on the peninsula.
The dispute, over South Korea's anti-North propaganda broadcasts, had brought the two sides to the brink of armed conflict.
Top aides to the leaders of North and South Korea have agreed to "hold contact" after talks aimed at ending a standoff between the two countries.
The meeting was held at the Panmunjom truce village after an exchange of artillery fire on Thursday strained relations between the two sides.
North Korea had issued an ultimatum with a deadline demanding that the South halt its loudspeaker propaganda broadcasts along the border or face military action.
That deadline passed without any reported incidents.
"The South and the North agreed to hold contact related to the ongoing situation in South-North relations," Kim Kyou-hyun, South Korea's deputy national security adviser, said in a televised briefing.
The Democratic presidential candidate may also have shown his cards on his choice of running mate.
The US president also shared a post on Twitter accusing Dr Anthony Fauci of misleading the public over hydroxychloroquine.
