Kim Kye-gwan, North Korea’s point man on nuclear issues, departed for Russia on Tuesday, the country’s state news agency said, in what appears to be its efforts to resume dialogue with neighboring countries over the nuclear standoff.
Kim, the first foreign affairs vice-minister, and his party left to visit Russia, the North’s Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said in a brief dispatch in English.
“They were seen off at the airport by Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Kung Sok-ung, the Russian Ambassador to the DPRK Alexander Timonin and Chinese Ambassador to the DPRK Liu Hongcai,” according to the report. (Yonhap News)
