华盛顿——总统乔·拜登白宫周四宣布，将于5月下旬接待韩国总统文在寅。
这将是拜登自冠状病毒大流行期间上任以来，第二次有机会与外国同行面对面交谈。此前，拜登已计划周五与日本首相菅义伟举行面对面会谈。
白宫新闻秘书珍·普萨基说，穆恩的访问日期将在晚些时候宣布。
拜登与韩国外长的会晤是在美国国务卿安东尼·布林肯(Antony Blinken)和国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀(Lloyd Austin)最近访问首尔，以及4月份在马里兰州安纳波利斯举行的美国、日本和韩国国家安全顾问三方会议之后进行的。
拜登与穆恩的会晤“将突显出牢固的美韩联盟以及我们两国人民之间的长期联系和友谊。”
Biden to host South Korea's president in late May
WASHINGTON -- PresidentJoe Bidenwill host South Korean President Moon Jae-in for meetings in the second half of May, the White House announced Thursday.
It will be Biden's second opportunity to sit in person with a foreign counterpart since he took office during the coronavirus pandemic. It will follow face-to-face meetings Biden has scheduled for Friday with Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said a date for Moon's visit would be announced later.
Biden's meeting with his South Korean counterpart follows recent visits to Seoul by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, and a three-way meeting in April in Annapolis, Maryland, among the national security advisers from the United States, Japan and South Korea.
Biden's meeting with Moon “will highlight the ironclad U.S.-South Korea alliance and the long-standing ties and friendships between the people of our two countries.”
