(35 minutes later) | |
Russian and North Korean delegations “may meet” on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF), which is underway in the Russian city of Vladivostok, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Wednesday. | |
The representatives of the delegations of Moscow and Pyongyang are likely to have contacts on economic issues on the sidelines of the EEF, Lavrov said. | |
“As I understand, the DPRK's [Democratic People's Republic of Korea] delegation to the EEF consists of representatives of the economic bloc,” Lavrov said. “We also have representatives of our economic ministries and departments here. | |
“So I think, meetings within the profile structures of the two countries will take place,” Lavrov told journalists on Wednesday. | |
The EEF is taking place on September 6-7 and is expected to gather over 3,500 participants from more than 50 countries, including China, India, Japan, Australia, Canada, the US and UK. |
