US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton is in South Korea to discuss the effort to get North Korea back to nuclear disarmament talks, the US Today reported. Clinton arrived in Seoul on Saturday and was to see South Korea’s foreign minister before meeting the country’s president early Sunday. She will then travel to Japan to show US support for the Japanese people who are recovering from a major earthquake and tsunami as well as strong aftershocks.
