North Korea media reports that
Kim Yong-nam, the second most powerful man in North Korea, will soon
visit Mongolia.
Kim, president of the Presidium
of the North's Supreme People's Assembly, reportedly was issued an invitation
for his visit by Mongolian President Nambariin Enkbayar.
North Korea recently agreed
to allow rail travel from South Korea into North Korea and proceed through
Mongolia to Russia and Europe.
Additionally, resource-starved
North Korea may be interested in discussing joint mining projects in
Mongolia.
International observers are
certain North Korea has taken special interest in the numerous development
and mining projects undertaken between South Korea and Mongolia in recent
years.
