Cho's itinerary includes a stay in Atlanta through Monday, where he will participate in the G20 summit, which will convene for two days to address a range of global concerns, as reported by Seoul's foreign ministry.
South Korea is set to hold the G20 presidency in 2028 and intends to collaborate with member nations to maintain consistency in dialogue on pressing global issues, officials added. During his visit, Cho is anticipated to meet with Rubio to deliberate on matters pertaining to the Korean Peninsula, encompassing North Korean leader Kim Jong-un's recent trip to China and the potential for revitalized dialogue between Pyongyang and Washington, alongside outstanding bilateral issues.
