It is expected that the three countries will review the real-time sharing of North Korean missile information and discuss strengthening military security and economic security cooperation.
<Jake Sullivan / US National Security Adviser> “All three countries are willing to hold talks. In particular, the support of the US has made substantial progress in Korea-Japan relations, and the strengthening of Korea-Japan relations will lead to a stronger trilateral relationship. Because I know that.”
The leaders of South Korea and Japan will also visit a memorial stone for Korean atomic bomb victims.
President Yoon is also coordinating schedules for meetings with Zainichi Koreans who were affected by the atomic bombing.
Attending the G7 is expected to serve as an opportunity to accelerate closer contact with the West following the state visit to the United States and the restoration of shuttle diplomacy between Korea and Japan.
The challenge is how to get through the backlash from China and Russia.
