The meeting between President Yoon and Prime Minister Trudeau took place on the occasion of attending the Korea-ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) Summit held at the Jakarta Convention Center (JCC).

President Yoon said, “Since taking office last year, I have met (with Prime Minister Trudeau) through numerous multilateral meetings and bilateral meetings, including NATO (NATO · North Atlantic Treaty Organization), the United Nations, G20 (20 major countries), and Hiroshima G7 (7 major countries).” “It seems that Prime Minister Trudeau has now become a close friend,” he said.

President Yoon said, “Just seeing it from afar at a multilateral meeting makes me run away, and I’m glad to meet you like this.”

Prime Minister Trudeau replied, “I think we met often last year and this year. President Yoon came to Canada, and I also visited Korea.”

At the same time, he expressed his gratitude, “Canada had a difficult summer due to fires, and at that time, the Korean Emergency Relief Team was a great help to us and a great resonance throughout Canada.”

Prime Minister Trudeau also emphasized, “Even in the region, we are cooperating well in various fields, including operations related to the implementation of sanctions on North Korea.”

Previously, President Yoon had a summit meeting with Mark Brown, Prime Minister of the Cook Islands, and requested interest and support for hosting the Busan Expo.

This is the first bilateral meeting held on the occasion of the ASEAN Summit.
