South Korea’s first deputy foreign minister and ex-ambassador to Russia Chan Ho-jin could visit Moscow in mid-May. This is reported by the Yonhap agency, citing sources.
The visit is expected to last two days. During the visit, he intends to meet with a number of Russian officials.
However, the South Korean Foreign Ministry, in a conversation with TASS, did not confirm the diplomat’s intention to come to Moscow. “This message is incorrect,” the Foreign Ministry’s press service responded to a request for comment from Yonhap News Agency.
Jang Ho-jin was appointed ambassador to Russia in the summer of 2022, but already in April 2023 he was offered the post of deputy head of the South Korean Foreign Ministry.
