SEOUL, Feb. 5 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's upcoming election calendar and other domestic political elements would not be major points of consideration in the planning and proceedings of another inter-Korean summit if the two countries were to agree to hold one, Seoul's pointman on the North said Friday.

"If an inter-Korean summit is ever to be held (again), I don't believe (domestic) political consideration will be an important variable at all," Hyun In-taek, Seoul's unification minister, said during an interpellation session at the National Assembly.
