Ifølge erklæringen, som mange anså som et skritt mot en koreansk gjenforening, ble det planlagt fire kommende møter på ministernivå i Pyongyang, Seoul og Jejuøya fra juli til desember 2000. Disse skulle også involvere Røde Kors for blant annet å organisere de planlagte familiegjenforeningene.

Erklæringens engelske versjon lyder:
