1st LD: Ban Ki-moon to visit Pyongyang next Monday

Xinhua, November 18, 2015 Adjust font size:

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon will visit Pyongyang next Monday and stay for around four days, the official KCNA news agency of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) told Xinhua on Wednesday.

The state-run news agency said Ban will visit Pyongyang by plane and arrive at Sunan International Airport, but refused to tell whether he will take a flight of Air Koryo, the only national flag carrier in the DPRK.

The KCNA said Ban's itinerary is now being confirmed, without giving more details. Endi
