NK's vice FM in Beijing after trip to New York
BEIJING, Aug. 3 (Yonhap) -- North Korean Vice Foreign Minister Kim Kye-gwan arrived in Beijing on Wednesday after a weeklong trip to New York for high-level talks with U.S. officials.
While in Beijing, Kim is expected to meet with Chinese officials, including top nuclear envoy Wu Dawei, and brief them on the results of talks in New York.
It was not immediately known when the former North Korean nuclear envoy will return to Pyongyang. But given the fixed schedules of North Korea's Air Koryo flights linking Beijing and Pyongyang, Kim is highly likely to depart on Thursday afternoon or Saturday.
The North's former top nuclear envoy held talks with Stephen Bosworth, U.S. special representative for North Korea policy, on Thursday and Friday after arriving in New York on Tuesday last week. It marked the first high-level dialogue between the two sides since December 2009.
