The Kremlin spokesman announced on Tuesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin has no plans to meet with Choe Son Hui, North Korea’s Foreign Minister, who is currently visiting Russia.
TASS conveyed Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov’s statement: “No, the president does not have such a meeting on his schedule. “When asked about a potential meeting between Putin and Choe during a briefing, Peskov said, “No, the president does not have such a meeting on his schedule.”
Choe is set to visit Moscow the following day. TASS reported earlier that Choe departed Pyongyang the previous day, arriving in Vladivostok in Russia’s Far East, with plans to visit Moscow on October 30.
Moreover, the Russian news agency Sputnik announced that Choe will talk with Russian officials on Wednesday. However, details regarding which officials she will meet remain unknown.
Previously, according to North Korea’s Korean Central News Agency, Choe and her delegation left Pyongyang the day before for an official visit to Russia.
Speculation surrounding her visit suggests discussions may include the deployment of North Korean troops to Russia and possible plans for Kim Jong Un’s future visit.
