Briefing by News4U · First published
Today South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said at a Cabinet meeting that South Korea will continue to closely cooperate with the U.S. administration after the midterm elections and will seek to expand bipartisan support in Congress. The remarks came after the Democratic Party won control of both the Senate and the House last week. “After the U.S. midterm elections, many changes are expected to take place in the external environment,” Lee said, instructing officials to minimize negative effects on the domestic economy. He said Seoul would need to keep close cooperation with the U.S. administration, build a bipartisan foundation in Congress, and expand communication with state governments and the economic sector.
