Prime Minister Abe talks with Korean Prime Minister Lee today The relationship improvement is unclear October 24th, 4:29
On April 24, Prime Minister Abe will meet with key officials from each country who participated in the “Courtesy of the Throne of Religion” and will meet with Prime Minister Lee Na Kyung in the morning. Prime Minister Lee is handing over the letter of President Moon Jae-in, but it is unclear whether it will be a chance to improve the relationship.
Prime Minister Abe has been meeting with the key figures from each country in attendance in line with the “Imperial Court House”, and has so far met with representatives from 46 countries and regions.
There will be talks with more than a dozen countries on the 24th.
Prior to this, when Prime Minister Lee met with former Minister of Finance Nukaga of the Liberal Democratic Party serving as the chairman of the Japan-Korea Parliamentary Federation on 23rd, Prime Minister Abe expressed his desire to improve the worsening Japan-Korea relationship. It was revealed that the letter of President Moon Jane ’s letter will be handed over at the meeting.
The summit meeting between Prime Minister Abe and President Moon has not been held for more than a year since September last year, and it seems that the Mun administration wants to overcome the situation through this meeting.
However, the Japanese side said that the issue of “recruitment” remains the same as the Korean side's position to rectify the violation of the Japan-Korea claim rights agreement.
Government officials have pointed out that “the gap between Japan and Korea is large, and that the relationship does not improve because we met with Prime Minister Lee,” and it is unclear whether it will trigger the improvement of the relationship. .
