Trump lands in South Korea amid deadlocked trade talks over $350bn deal on tariffs
Donald Trump arrived in South Korea to meet President Lee Jae Myung, amid stalled discussions over a $350bn trade agreement between the two nations. Trump addressed a CEOs summit in Gyeongju, a historical city and host of the annual Apec summit, following a flight from Tokyo where he secured a rare earths deal with Japan’s new prime minister, Sanae Takaichi. Despite the visit, expectations of a breakthrough on tariffs are minimal. Trump is set to receive a replica royal gold crown before his meeting with Lee.
