S. Korea-U.S. tariff talks to move towards "win-win solution": Acting Pres. Han

Acting President Han Duck-soo believes the planned TWO-PLUS-TWO trade talks between Seoul and Washington will lead to a "win-win solution."

Speaking at a Cabinet meeting on this Tuesday Han pointed out that the talks were proposed by Washington and will take place this coming Thursday in Washington D.C.

Finance Minister Choi Sang-mok and Trade Minister Ahn Duk-geun will meet with U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and the U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer.

On the agenda are tariff consultations and prospects of partnership in shipbuilding and energy.

Minister Choi departed for the U.S. earlier today to also attend the G20 meeting of finance ministers and central bank governors.

The meeting will be held in conjunction with the IMF and World Bank Spring Meetings.
