Former North Korean defectors and conservative protesters release balloons carrying anti-North Korea leaflets towards the north at Imjingak pavilion near the demilitarized zone separating the two Koreas in Paju, about 55 km (34 miles) north of Seoul, April 29, 2011. The activists released about 200,000 anti-Pyongyang leaflets, anti-North Korea DVDs, radios and 1,000 one dollar banknotes on Friday. North Korean leader Kim Jong-il is ready to hold direct talks with South Korea but the isolated state will not apologize for two deadly attacks on the divided peninsula last year, former President Jimmy Carter said after The Elders' Pyongyang visit.
