Russia organize space trip for South Korea astronaut in 2008
In 2008, this country will organize a space trip for an astronaut from South Korea. Beginning with 2012, it will be annually pumping 10 billion cubic metres of natural gas to that dynamic East Asian country. Formal agreements about this came at meetings between the Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov and his South Korean hosts President Noh Moo-hyun and Prime Minister Hang Meng-sok in Seoul on Tuesday. They also discussed possibilities for further diplomacy to persuade North Korea to drop nuclear weapons ambitions. Both sides spoke about burgeoning ties between their countries.
