Minister of Foreign Affairs Kang, Kyung-wha will visit Washington D.C., the United States, on November 8-11 and have a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on November 9. The upcoming foreign ministerial meeting, the first face-to-face meeting between Minister Kang and Secretary Pompeo since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, has been arranged due to Secretary Pompeo’s invitation to Minister Kang to the U.S. after the Secretary’s visit to the ROK, which had been arranged for early October, was cancelled due to unavoidable circumstances.
