The Associated Press quoted a South Korean official saying that US House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi planned to visit the North-South border area jointly controlled by the US-led United Nations Command and North Korea later on Thursday.

If that visit happens, Pelosi would be the highest-ranking American to travel to the Joint Security Area since former President Donald Trump travelled to the region to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in 2019, the report added.

Earlier in the day, Pelosi will meet with South Korea’s National Assembly Speaker Kim Jin-Pyo and other senior members of parliament to discuss regional security, economic cooperation and climate issues, media reported.
