SEOUL, South Korea — Henry Kissinger, the former United States secretary of state, was released from a hospital on Sunday after treatment for stomach pains, said a spokesman for Yonsei University’s Severance Hospital in Seoul.
Mr. Kissinger, 86, was seen off by Dr. Park Chang-il, the head of the hospital, on Sunday morning. He did not speak to reporters waiting outside.
Mr. Kissinger was brought to the hospital on Saturday morning for abdominal pains, said Lee Seong-man, a hospital spokesman. But his condition quickly improved, Mr. Lee said.
Mr. Kissinger reportedly headed for the airport to continue a trip to China. He had arrived in Seoul on Wednesday and the next day delivered a speech at the Asian Institute for Policy Studies. On Friday, he met with the South Korean president, Lee Myung-bak.
