Bessent Set to Miss Key US-South Korea Trade Talks This Week
The scheduled high-level trade talks between the United States and South Korea this week have been postponed due to the unavailability of US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. The talks, which were expected to address key trade-related issues between the two countries, have been delayed due to a scheduling conflict on Bessent's part, according to a statement from South Korea's Finance Ministry. The postponement of these talks, which were seen as an important opportunity for the two nations to discuss and address any trade-related concerns, is likely to have some impact on the ongoing economic and trade relations between the US and South Korea. The new date for these talks has not yet been announced, and it remains to be seen how this delay will affect the overall progress of the bilateral trade agenda.
