Chung said that the realization of a lasting peace in Northeast Asia must be based on a common understanding of history.
He said that South Korea's National Assembly proposed setting up a joint committee on history studies among South Korea, China and Japan to exchange thoughts about history issue and establish a correct conception of history.
