Urging dialogue to promote peace, the Swiss foreign minister arrived in the North Korean capital Pyongyang on Thursday to reestablish a diplomatic office.
卡西斯在美国社交媒体平台上表示,该办事处的正式重启是“加强与朝鲜直接对话的具体步骤”,并补充道:“对话仍是该地区和平与稳定的关键。”目前尚不清楚该办事处将是正式大使馆还是级别较低的外交使团。
The office's official reopening is a "concrete step towards strengthening direct dialogue" with North Korea, Ignazio Cassis said on US social media platform "Dialogue remains essential for peace and stability in the region," he added. It is unclear whether the office will be a full-fledged embassy or lower-level mission.
