U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, denied her alleged plan to pay a visit to North Korea this year. Her spokesman told United Press International (UPI) regarding reports by some Korean newspapers that “at least those parts in the reports that mention Sen. Clinton are wholly incorrect,” adding, “She has not discussed or planned such a trip.”
Recently, some Korean newspapers reported that Democratic Party leader Han Hwa-gab noted he intended to meet with U.S. ambassador to Korea Christopher Hill to mediate Sen. Clinton and other senators’ visit to the North.
