North and south korea.
The womens table tennis teams for both north and south korea had announced that they will not be competing against eachother in an effort to establish unity between the two countries. They had told the umpires that they would be skip the match and become one team at the quarterfinals and compete together in the semifinals.
This is and important article because it is further development of future unity between two countries that had been hostile towards eachother for decades. This ties in with the previous news of president moon and kim jong un meeting with eachother to discuss plans for unity. Overall i feel that such agreement can result very well or very bad. This could be our generarions version of the fall of the berlin wall and reunification of east and west germany or it could be like how hitler signed thag agreement not to further attack and mobilize but ended up starting ww2.
