Yeltsin begins a delayed three-day official visit to South Korea Wednesday amid indications that his hosts are becoming more interested in wooing Beijing than Moscow. Long spurned by Communist governments in both China and the former Soviet Union, South Korea has established diplomatic relations with Beijing and Moscow in the last two years, as both its giant neighbors seek trade and investment to spur their economies. Seoul welcomes the new opportunities but seems to see greater immediate potential in the fast-growing Chinese economy than in the chaotic Russian market.
