The foreign ministers of South Korea and China met amid predictions that U.S. President Donald Trump will push for a U.S.-North Korea summit in the wake of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Shenzhen, China in November.\n<\/p>\n<p>They exchanged views on the regional situation, including \u25b3 end-of-war multilateral discussions \u25b3 denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula \u25b3 reduction of South Korea-U.S. joint training. Minister Cho said, &#8220;We will strive to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula and realize peace,&#8221; adding, &#8220;We look forward to working with China based on the common interests of Korea and China of peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As the most important neighbor of the Korean Peninsula, China will continue to play a constructive role for peace, development, and stability on the Korean Peninsula,&#8221; Wang said. &#8220;I hope that both South and North Korea can gradually follow the opportunity for peace and coexistence, and I sincerely pray for the Korean Peninsula to achieve continuous stability and development.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>It is said that the previous multilateral discussion was also dealt with. Wang met with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in April. China has not only mediated US-North Korea dialogue but has also held six-party talks. In Beijing alone, China, six-party talks were held six times between 2003 and 2007.\n<\/p>\n<p>On the 20th, President Lee will meet with Minister Wang at the Blue House. President Lee will evaluate the direction of development of Korea-China relations and the situation in the region and send his regards to Chinese President Xi Jinping, Cheong Wa Dae said. Wi Sung-rak, head of the Blue House National Security Office, also decided to hold a meeting and luncheon with Wang.\n<\/p>\n<p>[Reporter SUNG SEUNG HUN]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\uc0ac\uc9c4 \ud655\ub300 The foreign ministers of South Korea and China met in Seoul on the 19th to seek&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":124843,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[51779,21446,4924,62758,63349,112,64484],"class_list":["post-124842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-seoul","tag-ccp","tag-foreign-minister","tag-korean-war","tag-parties","tag-rewriting","tag-seoul","tag-six-party-talks"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124842","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=124842"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/124842\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/124843"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=124842"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=124842"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/korea\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=124842"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
