Nordkoreansk diplomat: Jag är på väg till Sverige

Choe Son-hui (Chosŏn'gŭl: 최선희, born 1964) is a senior North Korean diplomat. She is one of seven regular vice ministers in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is one of few North Korean women holding a high-level office. Her portfolio includes relations with the United States and Canada. Choe is a seasoned interpreter, aide, researcher, and Foreign Ministry official. Fluent in English, she interpreted at the six-party talks and Washington-Pyongyang dialogue early in her career. Choe has progressed through the ranks in the foreign ministry, from section chief, to deputy director, and since 2016 deputy director-general of the North American department. She was made vice minister in 2018. Choe is a regular participant in track 1.5 and track 2 diplomacy and has experience particularly in the area of North Korea–United States relations and nuclear issues. She is expected to play a role in the 2018 summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong-un. When KCNA carried a statement under her name where she called US Vice President Mike Pence a "political dummy", President Donald Trump temporarily cancelled the meeting. Regardless, Choe was a participant in the summit when it took place on 12 June.
