A team of foreign policy and security advisers to South Korea's president-elect Yoon Suk-yeol is visiting the United States this week, seeking to help engineer a early summit with President Joe Biden and coordinate efforts to rein in North Korea's intensifying weapons tests, sources said on Monday.
Conservative outsider Yoon won the March 9 election and is working to map out his foreign policy agenda ahead of his swearing in on May 10, just as tension is flaring in the wake of North Korea's launch last month of a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM).
