   "South Korea ramped up its diplomatic efforts to gain greater influence   
   over North Korea’s traditional allies and old friends -- China, Cuba,   
   and Iran -- with Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul spearheading a series of   
   high-level talks on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly   
   in New York.   
      
   Central to the efforts was Cho's third face-to-face meeting of the year   
   with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Saturday, a meeting South   
   Korea's Foreign Ministry described as part of "close strategic   
   communication."   
      
   The dialogue, showcasing strengthened bilateral cooperation and   
   exchanges, paved the way for a significant development: The two   
   ministers agreed to pursue a summit between President Yoon Suk Yeol and   
   Chinese President Xi Jinping during the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic   
   Cooperation summit in Peru this November, the Seoul ministry said.   
      
   Beyond diplomatic coordination, the two ministers also agreed to bolster   
   cooperation across sectors -- enhancing exchanges between local   
   governments, parliaments, academia, and citizens -- while strengthening   
   economic collaboration to foster growth and improve livelihoods in both   
   nations, the ministry added."
