S. Korea Denies Summit with Japan in March

Seoul, Feb. 16 (Jiji Press)--South Korea has had no talks with Japan for a bilateral summit, Yonhap news agency reported Sunday. 
   An official at the presidential office categorically denied a Japanese media report that the Japanese government plants to propose holding a meeting between Japanese Prime Minister Shizo Abe and South Korean President Park Geun Hye when they attend a nuclear security summit in The Hague in March, according to Yonhap.
   In order to materialize a Japan-South Korea summit, the issues of Korean "comfort women" and Japanese history textbooks "need to be first addressed by the two sides," the official, who asked not to be named, was quoted as saying.
   The Japanese Foreign Ministry's Asian and Oceanian Affairs Bureau Director-General Junichi Ihara is scheduled to visit South Korea for two days from Tuesday. He hopes to discuss ways to mend the soured ties between the two Asian neighboring countries with his counterparts in Seoul.
