U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will visit Korea from Nov. 8 to 9, according to South Korea's Foreign Ministry.
 
“Foreign Minister Park Jin will meet with Secretary of State Antony Blinken to discuss the bilateral alliance, North Korea issues, economic security and industrial technology and other issues of regional and international pertinence,” the ministry said in its statement Wednesday.
 
Blinken last visited Korea two years ago, when he attended the two-plus-two foreign and defense ministerial meeting in Seoul in March 2021.
