US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau said that South Korea and the United States have opened a new chapter in their alliance with the release of a joint fact sheet on bilateral security and trade agreements.
Landau, during a forum co-hosted by the Atlantic Council and the Korea Society said just recently, yesterday, our two countries released a historic joint fact sheet on President Trump’s historic state visit to Korea at the end of October, inaugurating a new chapter in the US-Korea alliance.
The senior diplomat said that the priorities include rebuilding and expanding critical industries, maintaining foreign exchange market stability, enhancing commercial ties, promoting reciprocal trade, modernizing the bilateral alliance and furthering the two countries’ maritime and nuclear partnerships.
Noting that the two in-person summit meetings have taken place, Landau said that Trump has a great relationship with Lee. He also stressed that during Trump’s state visit to Korea last month, he secured billions of dollars for the American economy in landmark deals.
