Leaders of South Korea, China and Japan to resume trilateral meeting to revive cooperation
The Leaders of South Korea, China and Japan were set to meet Monday for their first trilateral meeting in more than four years as they seek to improve long-complicated relations that are key to regional peace.
No major breakthrough was expected during the gathering in Seoul. But experts said just restarting the countries’ highest-level annual meeting was a positive sign for cooperation among the three Northeast Asian neighbors.
On the eve of the meeting, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, Chinese Premier Li Qiang and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida had rounds of bilateral meetings among themselves to discuss how to boost economic and other cooperation.
But some thorny topics were also brought up, like North Korea, Taiwan and the South China Sea.
