Seoul, January 02 (QNA) - South Korean President Lee Jae-myung is set to discuss ways to strengthen economic cooperation and promote peace on the Korean Peninsula during an upcoming summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing next week.
South Korea's National Security Advisor, Wiآ Sung-lak, said the leaders would explore practical collaboration across multiple sectors, including supply chain investment, the digital economy, environmental and climate initiatives, tourism, and cross-border crime prevention.
"We share a common goal of achieving peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and in Northeast Asia," he added.
North Korea is expected to be a central topic on the summit agenda, as Seoul seeks to build momentum for dialogue with Pyongyang.
The planned visit comes less than two months after President Xi's first trip to South Korea in 11 years, which coincided with the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Gyeongju. (QNA)
