Key issues of interest between the two countries, such as security, high-tech industries, science and technology, and cultural cooperation, are expected to be addressed at the summit.
The leaders of Korea and Japan are expected to announce concrete measures to build new cooperative relations in areas such as security, economy, culture, and people-to-people exchanges.
Apart from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), there is interest in whether the two leaders will agree that Korea and Japan will conduct a ‘joint safety verification of the plan to discharge contaminated water from the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan’.
Prime Minister Kishida will arrive in Korea tomorrow (7th) and begin his first visit to the National Cemetery in Dongjak-dong, Seoul.
