South Korean President Lee Jae-myung will visit Japan for a summit with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba later this month, Lee's office said Wednesday.
Presidential spokesperson Kang Yu-jung told a press briefing that Lee will make a two-day visit to Japan from August 23 for the summit meeting with the Japanese premier.
Kang said the two leaders will seek to solidify the foundation for future-oriented bilateral cooperation, discuss ways to strengthen South Korea-Japan and South Korea-U.S.-Japan cooperation, and exchange opinions about regional peace and stability and other regional and global issues.
After the trip to Japan, the South Korean president will pay a three-day visit to the United States for a summit with U.S. President Donald Trump on August 25.
