TOKYO (AP) — South Korea and Japan should collaborate more on advanced technology, climate change and economic security, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said Friday, looking ahead after the two sides agreed to put aside rancor over trade and historical issues. “I think there is a lot of room for cooperation between the two countries in future high-tech new industries such as digital transformation, semiconductors, batteries, and electric vehicles,” Yoon told a gathering in Tokyo of business leaders from both countries. “The governments of the two countries will do everything to help you interact freely and create innovative business opportunities,” Yoon said. The meeting followed talks between Yoon and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida on Thursday that sought to turn a page on the longstanding grievances that have divided the two U.S. allies.
