The leaders of South Korea and Japan will meet next week on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, Seoul officials said Thursday, in the countries’ first summit in nearly three years amid tensions over history.
SEOUL, South Korea—
Kim said the meeting is one of a series that Yoon is pushing to hold with world leaders attending the UN General Assembly next Tuesday and Wednesday. He said South Korea and the US have also agreed on a meeting between Yoon and President Joe Biden. The history disputes have spilled over to other areas, with the two countries downgrading each other’s trade status and Seoul threatening to scrap an intelligence-sharing agreement. The wrangling has complicated a US-led attempt to solidify its alliances with its regional partners amid growing Chinese influence and North Korean nuclear threats.
