Kim rarely meets officials from other countries and his expected talks with Unification Minister Chung Dong-young come as delegates from South Korea are in Pyongyang to mark the fifth anniversary of a landmark summit between Kim and then South Korean President Kim Dae-jung.
"The minister plans to meet Chairman Kim Jong-il today. But we can't give you details about the place or time," the spokesman said by telephone in Seoul. Kim's main official title among many is chairman of the National Defense Commission.
