The presidential office on Wednesday announced the detailed itinerary of Moon’s trip to Osaka, where he will attend the G20 Summit to be held in the Japanese city for two days from Friday. 

Moon will sit down with Xi at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday and discuss pending bilateral and multilateral issues, including cooperation to help resume U.S.-North Korea negotiations on denuclearization. 

He will meet with Putin at 10:45 p.m. on Friday and discuss measures to enhance Seoul’s cooperation with Moscow, also aimed at advancing nuclear talks between the North and the U.S.
