Starting today, President Moon Jae-in will participate in five international conferences related to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and ASEAN via video. The first step, today’s ASEAN-Korea Summit, announced an additional strategy to expand the government’s existing New South Policy. Reporter Na Yeon-soo reports. Although summit diplomacy has become difficult face-to-face due to Corona 19, there are more global issues that need to be addressed between countries. This year, the 10th anniversary of the Korea-ASEAN strategic partnership will be held by video. At the first meeting, the ASEAN-Korea Summit, President Moon Jae-in said that through the spirit of solidarity and cooperation, he will be able to overcome the crown crisis together. At the same time, a “plus strategy” has been introduced that reflects the new demands in the new southern policy that the Korean government has followed for cooperation with ASEAN. It contains seven core areas of cooperation, including comprehensive medical and health cooperation, broader exchanges in the fields of education and culture, and cooperation in the industries and security of the future. ASEAN leaders warmly welcomed President Moon’s proposal and responded that they are willing to actively cooperate. Along with this, the meeting reaffirmed ASEAN’s unwavering support for the Korean government’s peace process on the Korean peninsula. President Moon then attended the Korea-Mekong Summit, ASEAN + 3 and the East Asia Summit, and signed the world’s largest Free Trade Agreement at the last meeting, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement. President Moon will communicate with the leaders of each country including ASEAN until the 15th, seeking the strength of solidarity and cooperation between countries that the Corona 19 virus cannot penetrate.
