SEOUL, September 15 (AJP) - Foreign Minister Cho Hyun will visit Beijing this week, making his first trip to China since assuming his post.
According to the Foreign Ministry, Cho is scheduled to hold talks with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi on Wednesday during his two-day visit.
The meeting's agenda is expected to include North Korea-related issues and raise concerns over large steel structures recently installed by Chinese authorities in waters near the West Sea.
Although it is China's turn to visit Seoul following former Minister Cho Tae-yul's trip to Beijing in May last year, Cho intends to prioritize practical diplomacy over protocol.
