Foreign Minister Cho Hyun met separately with his German and Polish counterparts on the sidelines of a Group of 20 (G20) meeting in Atlanta to discuss ways to enhance bilateral cooperation, his office said Saturday.<\/p>\n

Cho met with German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul on Friday (U.S. time), expressing hope for deeper ties with the European nation in a wide range of areas, including defense, the economy and cutting-edge industries, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n

In response, Wadephul thanked Seoul’s foreign ministry for successfully preparing for German Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s recent visit to Korea and expressed hope for expanded cooperation in bilateral trade and investment.<\/p>\n

Cho also met with his Polish counterpart, Radoslaw Sikorski, and called for continued discussions on cooperation in areas such as defense and batteries as a follow-up to Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s visit to Korea in April, the ministry said.<\/p>\n

Sikorski also requested Korea’s attention and support for Warsaw’s efforts to join the G20, with Cho proposing continued consultations on the matter.<\/p>\n
