Foreign Minister Cho Hyun is set to hold separate meetings with his Mexican and Kuwaiti counterparts in Seoul next week, according to the foreign ministry. The aim of these talks is to explore avenues for strengthening bilateral cooperation across various sectors such as economy, energy security, artificial intelligence, space, culture, education, and defense.
Mexican Foreign Secretary Roberto Velasco is slated to make his maiden visit to Korea in three years to engage in discussions with Cho on Monday. This visit comes as Mexico stands out as Korea's largest trading and investment partner in Latin America. The two nations have enjoyed robust cooperation in numerous fields since they established a strategic partnership in 2005, marking the first such partnership Seoul had with a Latin American country.
Cho's itinerary also includes a meeting with Kuwaiti Foreign Minister Jarrah Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah in Seoul on Tuesday. Al-Sabah's visit to Korea would mark the first for a Kuwaiti foreign minister. The discussions between these three nations would focus on expanding and deepening their mutual ties in diverse domains.
