Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong left for Britain on Sunday to attend a Group of Seven (G7) meeting for discussions on access to COVID-19 vaccines, climate change and other global issues.
The first in-person gathering of G7 foreign and development ministers in over two years is slated to take place in London from Monday to Wednesday. Though not party to it, South Korea, Australia, India, South Africa and Brunei, the chair of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, have been invited as guests.

On the occasion of Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong s participation in the G7 Foreign and Development Ministers Meeting set for next week, talks between Chung and his Japanese counterpart Toshimitsu Motegi are expected to take place on the sidelines.
However, diplomatic observers are not pinning high hopes on their long-delayed meeting paving the way for the immediate normalization of the soured relations between Seoul and Tokyo.
Currently, bilateral ties between South Korea and Japan have slumped to their worst level in years over wartime history issues, so Chung, who took office in February, has yet to have had a phone call with Motegi due to Japan refusing contact.
