Good afternoon. Let me start today’s briefing.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Cho Hyun will attend the luncheon session of the 24th Korea–India Strategic Dialogue, to be held in Seoul on Thursday, December 18, and deliver a keynote address.

The Korea–India Strategic Dialogue is an annual event jointly organized by the Korea Foundation (KF), the Seoul Forum for International Affairs, and India’s Ananta Centre, bringing together experts from both countries to discuss ways to enhance cooperation between the two countries.

In his keynote address, Minister Cho will appreciate the close and longstanding Korea–India cooperative relationship across a wide range of areas, including defense, the defense industry, economic affairs, and people-to-people exchanges, and present the Korean government’s future vision for the development of bilateral relations.
