South Korea Should Not Fear China's Rise, Foreign Minister Says
Cho and Wang said bilateral trade could hit a record high this year as they sought closer coordination on regional issues and North Korea.
- On Friday, South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Hyun met Chinese Foreign Minister Wang in Beijing to discuss Korean Peninsula peace ahead of next week's Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Shenzhen.
- Relations between the two nations have improved since South Korean President Lee Jae Myung took office, reversing a downturn under predecessor Yoon Suk Yeol, who aligned Seoul more closely with Washington and Tokyo.
- Wang emphasized maintaining friendly ties is the "right choice for both sides," proposing expanded cooperation in artificial intelligence and biomedicine while aiming to restore annual people-to-people exchanges to around 10 million.
- Cho urged stronger bilateral communication to advance peace on the Korean Peninsula, with officials expressing hope that a meeting between President Lee and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Shenzhen would strengthen their strategic partnership.
- A South Korean presidential official stated Thursday that a meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un during the APEC summit remains unlikely, though contact before or after the summit is difficult to predict.
