Chinese and Japanese leaders arrive in South Korea for their first trilateral meeting since 2019
Leaders of China and Japan have arrived in Seoul to meet separately with South Korea’s president, ahead of a trilateral gathering. On Sunday, Chinese Premier Li Qiang and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida are to hold bilateral talks with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol to discuss ways to promote cooperation. On Monday, they will gather for a trilateral meeting, the first of its kind in more than four years. No major announcement is expected from the trilateral meeting. But just resuming their highest-level, three-way meeting is a good sign and suggests the three Asian neighbors are intent on improving their relations.
