SEOUL — South Korea’s ambassador to Japan says “high-level” talks are underway for a tripartite summit with China that is expected to take a position this year and will not maintain relations with the United States.
Those conversations are going well, M said in an interview. Yun Duk-min, Seoul’s envoy to Japan.
Seniors from the 3 Asian countries are scheduled to meet in Seoul on September 26.
South Korea is running to revive the three-way summits with Japan and China, stalled since 2019, first due to the Covid-19 pandemic. But Beijing was angered by U. S. President Joe Biden’s historic summit in August at the Camp David presidential retreat. with the leaders of South Korea and Japan, saying it was a planned attempt to sow discord among Asian neighbors.
“Japan-South Korea relations have progressed to become an environment that China has not experienced in the past decade,” Xi said Wednesday. Yun. ” It would be greater for the stability of the region if neighboring countries cooperated and received aid. “get along, instead of fighting each other this way. “
Appointed to his post about two months after President Yoon Suk-yeol took office in May 2022, Yun said ties between South Korea and Japan were radically different from those in his early days. Relations were strained due to a dispute over reimbursement. for South Korean personnel Japanese colonial rule on the peninsula from 1910 to 1945.
In March, Yoon cleared a hurdle in relations when Seoul dropped its call for Japanese corporations to compensate South Koreans recruited to work in Japanese mines and factories, but that it would create its own fund for them.
Biden has sought partners to save Beijing from access to complex semiconductors. Japan has limited exports of some chip-making tools, following similar measures in the United States and the Netherlands. South Korea has been somewhat hesitant, as giant corporations such as Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix count on China as a market and production site for their memory chips.
The ambassador said it would likely only be a matter of time before Chinese semiconductor brands move up the price chain and surpass what is manufactured through South Korean giants in the country. He said South Korea’s cellphone makers, branch operators and automakers have taken notice. its market share declines in China as domestic industries have grown.
“We are still very dependent on China, but an unexpected number of corporations have left China,” Yun said. “We can’t leave the Chinese market completely, but overall, the Chinese market is not going to stay open permanently. In this sense, the next few years will be an era for Korean semiconductor corporations.
At the same time, we have made very rapid progress with Japan, which will lead to a major shift in the regional strategic landscape, Yun said.
“When I arrived here last year, the whole Japanese society was very, very bloodless towards Korea, to the point that I wondered if it was imaginable that they would be so bloodless,” he said.
Yun will use the existing momentum to forge some other declaration with Japan, as he did a quarter-century ago, to shore up improved ties, which could simply keep industrial flows robust in the face of political tensions.
South Korean companies are starting to invest in Japan again, he said. Among them are small and medium-sized companies, as well as giants such as Samsung, which plans to establish a study and development center in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
Yun said security cooperation with Japan and the United States will grow as those countries face nuclear threats from countries such as North Korea.
Biden confided to Yoon and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida that the U. S. nuclear policy known as prolonged deterrence remains. The strategy is to exert force strong enough to convince an adversary that it will achieve its military and political objectives through aggression.
In recent years, North Korea has tested a barrage of missiles aimed at striking South Korea and Japan, as well as intercontinental ballistic missiles intended to deliver a nuclear warhead on the U. S. mainland. That could raise tough questions for Washington, the ambassador said.
“There is the question of whether the United States would retaliate against Pyongyang at New York’s expense if Tokyo or Seoul were attacked,” he said.
Yun turned to Fukushima, tourism and North Korea.
Regarding the discharge of sewage from the Fukushima nuclear site, Mr. Yun said, “The Japanese Prime Minister also said in his meeting with our President that he will never interfere in a way that could endanger the safety of the Korean people. “
On tourism, he said: “We are now talking about expanding flights and resuming flights between regional cities that have been lost due to Covid. It takes a little more time, but the infrastructure is being replenished, so we hope that this congestion with Japan will disappear. ease. “
On North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s visit to Russia, Mr Jong UnYun said: “We’ll have to wait and see if it’s just a display or something substantial, and I think it’s very politically motivated to shoot and do things that way. “when, in reality, it is anything that can be done in secret without giving it much importance.
