China, Japan and South Korea will hold a summit in South Korea when Chinese Premier Li Keqiang vists the country from Oct. 31-Nov. 2, the first leaders' meeting since May 2012, Reuters cited China's Foreign Ministry as saying on Monday. Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying, speaking at a daily news briefing, did not provide an exact date for the summit, but Japanese media have said it would be on Nov. 1 in Seoul. South Korean President Geun-hye said last week she hoped the three-way summit would help clear obstacles to better relations with Tokyo and boost stability in Northeast Asia.
