SEOUL, Aug. 24 (Yonhap) – Erik Solheim, executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme, has visited North Korea to discuss closer cooperation in the environment field, according to Pyongyang's media.
The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) carried a report on Thursday about Solheim's meeting with Minister of Land and Environment Protection Kim Kyong-jun at the People's Culture Palace in Pyongyang, as well as his visit to a tree nursery.
"Erik Solheim and his party visited the Central Tree Nursery under the Ministry of Land and Environment Protection on Thursday," the KCNA report said.
"Being briefed on the fact that the tree nursery was built as a modern sapling production base, the visitors went round the room dedicated to the history of the nursery, hard glass greenhouse and scientific research room," the report said, adding they also toured the e-library of Kim Il Sung University.
The KCNA didn't provide further details on the U.N. environment chief's visit, but Solheim tweeted that he was visiting North Korea for the first time to discuss environment cooperation.
He disclosed that the North has decided to participate in the U.N. Environment Programme's Clean Seas campaign designed to reduce ocean plastic pollution.
Solheim also quoted Minister Kim as requesting the U.N. to support the North's efforts to reduce ocean pollution and protect sea ecological environments.
Kim's alleged remark indicates that Pyongyang is interested in the prevention of ocean pollution in addition to the forest recovery that has been frequently emphasized by the North's leader Kim Jong-un.
Solheim arrived in Pyongyang on Wednesday.
