Korea, China FMs Meet in Beijing Ahead of APEC Summit

South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Hyun met with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing on November 13, ahead of the APEC summit in Shenzhen scheduled for November 18-19. During the talks at Diaoyutai, Cho expressed hope for continued strategic communication between the two countries to advance the situation on the Korean Peninsula, saying, "I expect to continue strengthening strategic communication between the two countries for progress on the Korean Peninsula situation." Wang also stated both sides would work to develop bilateral relations. Cho earlier told reporters at Gimpo that the chances of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un attending the APEC summit seem relatively low, and a Cheong Wa Dae official said a Trump-Kim meeting at APEC appears unlikely. Korean media noted the meeting could set the agenda for a potential Korea-China summit during APEC, and raised questions about whether China would extend visa-free entry for Korean tourists.
