한일 외교장관회담 개최... 강제징용 중재위 요청 논의할 듯
The nation's top diplomat met with her Japanese counterpart in Paris, on the sidelines of the annual ministerial council meeting of the OECD.
Kang Kyung-wha and Taro Kono's sitdown is held just days after Tokyo asked for an arbitration, involving a third country, to resolve the issue of compensation as ordered by South Korea's top court for Korean nationals who were forced to work for Japanese firms before and during World War Two.
Regarding that request,... an foreign ministry official said,... Seoul will review the matter while carefully considering all related issues.
