RoK, China hold 5th annual forum on public diplomacy

The event was chaired by RoK’s public diplomacy envoy Park Enna and former Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing.

Addressing the forum, Ms. Park Enna said RoK and China are supposed to help each other when the other side is in trouble.

Former Chinese Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing stated that the past 25 years since the two nations established diplomatic ties have seen significant progress in many areas based on "mutual understanding and respect."

He noted that there have still been challenges, but such efforts as public diplomacy could help overcome those difficulties.

The RoK - China Public Diplomacy Forum has been held annually since their leaders met in 2013 and agreed to promote mutual understanding between their people./.
