South Korean Ambassador to China Kim Jang-soo has presented his credentials to Chinese President Xi Jinping, China’s foreign ministry said Wednesday.
Kim, a former defense minister who headed the National Security Council at the presidential office Cheong Wa Dae, took up the post late last month.
Kim and eight other new ambassadors presented their credentials to Xi on Tuesday, the ministry said in a statement, adding that Xi told the ambassadors that China will step up friendly and practical cooperation with their countries and work together to safeguard peace and promote global prosperity.
