️🇰🇷🇺🇸 The Korea Times: South Korea is reviewing its trade, defense and nuclear cooperation with Washington after Democrats won control of both houses of Congress.
Seoul plans to strengthen ties with incoming lawmakers while maintaining cooperation with Trump. Topics under review include tariffs, nuclear-powered submarines, rights to enrich uranium and the transfer of operational control during wartime.
Prime Minister Han Seong-seok said bipartisan support should preserve the alliance. However, pressure for Korean investment in the US is unlikely to ease significantly, as Democrats also prioritize American jobs.
