Biden reportedly responded that Yoon played a leading role in fostering trilateral cooperation at the Camp David summit, and the cooperation will have a positive impact on the lives of people in the three nations.

The top office said that President Yoon also chatted with Kishida and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, deepened the friendship between the leaders and laid the foundation for cooperation.
