South Korea, Japan, and China are engaging in talks to explore potential cooperation and ease tensions caused by the growing threat from North Korea. The three-way meeting, hosted by South Korea, is aimed at addressing Beijing’s concerns over Washington’s strengthening security ties with Tokyo and Seoul. The talks follow a historic summit at Camp David in the US, where the three countries announced the beginning of a new chapter of close security cooperation. This development had drawn complaints from Beijing, as the joint statement released at the summit criticized China’s aggressive behavior in the South China Sea. However, the current meeting aims to explore the potential for cooperation among Seoul, Tokyo, and Beijing, as well as the possibility of resuming leaders’ summits, which have been stalled since 2019. Cooperation between the three nations is considered crucial not only for Northeast Asia but also for global peace, stability, and prosperity.
