The excerpt below is from President Dwight D. Eisenhower's announcement of a cease-fire agreement
in Korea in 1953.
In this struggle we have seen the United Nations meet the challenge of aggression-not with
pathetic words of protest, but with deeds of decisive purpose. And so at long last the carnage of
war is to cease and the negotiation of the conference table is to begin....
What was a primary outcome of the resulting negotiations?
O North Korea became a member of the United Nations.
A demilitarized zone was created on the Korean peninsula.
United Nations troops were stationed indefinitely in North Korea.
O The South Korean government agreed to pay reparations to soldiers' families.
