- 8 years ago
The top economic policymakers from Korea and the U.S. are meeting in Seoul as we speak.
Korea's Finance Minister Yoo Il-ho is holding talks with Jack Lew,... the U.S. Treasury secretary.
With no set agenda for the meeting,... all eyes are on whether sticky topics -- such as currency issues, sanctions on North Korea... and Seoul joining the Trans-Pacific Partnership -- will be discussed.
Earlier in the day, Lew held closed-door talks with Bank of Korea Governor Lee Ju-yeol, but nothing is known yet about the outcome of the meeting.
Lew is in Korea ahead of the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue to be held in Beijing next week.
