U.S. Thanks China for Its Help With Transit of Soldier Who Ran Off to North Korea

What’s new: U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan thanked the Chinese government for its help with the return transit of Travis King, the American soldier who crossed into North Korea two months ago.

Sullivan made the remarks as he announced King’s return in a White House statement on Wednesday. He also thanked the Swedish government, which serves as the “protecting power for the U.S. in North Korea.”
