SOUTH KOREA: Japan, South Korea to Co-ordinate Summit in China Next Month (BBG)
- Japan and South Korea agreed Saturday to work toward a summit between Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe and President Moon Jae-in next month -- a breakthrough that
came a day after the last-minute rescue of a military pact between the two
nations. Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha and her Japanese counterpart Toshimitsu
Motegi agreed to co-ordinate the summit on the sidelines of a trilateral meeting
with China, a Japanese official told reporters. Seoul the previous day reversed
a decision to sever its General Security of Military Information Agreement with
its neighbor. The Japanese official asked not to be identified in discussing the
meeting in the city of Nagoya, where a Group of 20 gathering of foreign
ministers was taking place.
