Seoul, Aug 18: The leaders of South Korea, the US and Japan have hailed the achievements of their trilateral security cooperation since their historic Camp David summit a year ago and vowed to bolster their ties across a broad range of areas.
South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol, US President Joe Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida issued a joint statement celebrating progress in their three-way cooperation, Yonhap news agency reported on Sunday.
“We are working together to achieve our shared goals of advancing security and prosperity for the region and the world,” the statement said.
“We stand by our commitment to consult on regional challenges, provocations, and threats affecting our collective interests and security,” it added.
The leaders highlighted key accomplishments in security areas, including the launch of the trilateral multi-domain exercise Freedom Edge in June and the signing of a new Trilateral Security Cooperation Framework last month.
