Reuters - Vietnam's Foreign Minister, Pham Binh Minh, arrived in Pyongyang on Tuesday (February 12) ahead of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's visit to Vietnam for the summit with U.S. President Donald Trump later this month. In the video provided by North Korea's official news agency KCNA, which Reuters cannot independently verify, the Vietnamese delegation led by Pham was seen greeting North Korean officials at Pyongyang International Airport. Minh and his party are scheduled to visit North Korea for three days from Tuesday to Thursday (February 14) at the invitation of North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho, according to the spokesperson of Vietnam's foreign ministry. Last week, Trump said he would hold his second meeting with Kim in the Vietnamese capital Hanoi on February 27 and 28. (Production: Minwoo Park, Hyunyoung Yi)
