The new South Korean President Lee Jae-ming will be invited to attend the G7 summit held in Canada from the 15th to the 17th.
This is Li Zaiming's first appearance on the multilateral diplomatic stage since taking office, and has attracted much attention.
South Korea Presidential Office spokesman Kang Youzhen held a press conference in Yongsan Presidential Office on the 7th to announce: "Lee Jae-ming was invited to attend the G7 summit."
"The Lee Jae-ming administration decided to significantly reduce the number of media on the special planes of Yoon Seo-yeo's administration and restore it to the level of Moon Jae-in's administration."
Relevant persons from the presidential office explained in an interview with reporters: "This is a part of diplomatic conversation and consultation, not a part that is easy to disclose. He was invited to accept the invitation, and the time for disclosure is today."
Since the G7 will be held in Canada, it is expected that Lee Jae-ming's possibility of visiting the United States will be cautious.
People from the Presidential Office said: "The meeting between the South Korean and the U.S. summit is an area that many people are very concerned about. They have made sufficient preparations."
People from the Presidential Office also said on "considering the visit to the U.S. envoy": "It is currently decided to participate in the G7 and accept invitations, so further preparations will be made in this regard. As far as I know, the visit to the U.S. envoy has plans, but the specific details will not be disclosed."
Li Zaiming's attendance at the G7 this time is his first multilateral summit diplomatic appearance since taking office.
This is expected to be a test bench to restore diplomacy that was affected by emergency martial law and impeachment on December 3 last year.
Previously, Li Zaiming started his first summit call with US President Donald Trump in about 20 minutes from 10 pm on the 6th.
This is 3 days after taking office.
According to the Presidential Office, the two leaders highly praised each other's leadership and agreed that they would work closely together for the development of the South Korean-US alliance in the future.
In addition, regarding the tariff agreement between South Korea and the United States, both parties will strive to reach an agreement that is satisfactory to both parties as soon as possible.
To this end, it is decided to encourage visibility results in practical consultations.
Trump invited Lee Jae-ming to the United States, and Lee Jae-ming responded that he hoped that the two countries would meet and negotiate frequently as special alliances.
In addition, in order to further discuss the development of the South Korean-US alliance, the two presidents unanimously decided to meet as soon as possible with multilateral meetings or bilateral visits.
It is reported that the two leaders shared various interesting stories and experiences during the election process in a friendly and unobstructed atmosphere. The spokesperson said that in particular, the two sides exchanged views on the dangers of assassination and political difficulties they experienced, and reached a consensus on overcoming difficulties and generating strong leadership.
In addition, the two leaders introduced their respective golf strengths and decided to play for the league in a possible time.
