We also exchanged views on the international situation and ways to strengthen cooperation between the ROK and the United States. Ahead of the summit, our government provided support to ensure that the U.S.-China trade negotiations could proceed smoothly in Korea.

We shared the understanding that close communication and coordination between our two governments is more important than ever amid rapidly changing global circumstances, and agreed to continue working together for peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula. In addition, based on the achievements of the ROK-U.S. summit held last year in Gyeongju, we plan to faithfully implement the Joint Fact Sheet in order to further deepen and advance our bilateral relations. 

I conveyed my best wishes for the continued prosperity of the United States under President Trump’s leadership. Likewise, President Trump extended his warm regards to the great people of the Republic of Korea. We will continue to broaden our cooperation for the forward-looking advancement of ROK-U.S. relations. It was a meaningful opportunity to once again confirm the strength of the ROK-U.S. alliance. 3:53AM 18 May 2026
