Top South Korean and Chinese Diplomats Pledge to Maintain Stable Supply Chains
If anyone was wondering why President Yoon snubbed Nancy Pelosi during her visit to South Korea, here is the reason:
The top South Korean and Chinese diplomats pledged Thursday to develop closer relations and maintain stable industrial supply chains at a time of deepening rivalry between Beijing and Washington.
South Korea, a longtime U.S. ally, is struggling to strike a balance between Washington and the increasingly assertive foreign policy of Chinese President Xi Jinping’s government. U.S.-Chinese conflict over Taiwan has added to complications for governments that want amicable ties with both sides.
Foreign Ministers Park Jin and Wang Yi, in separate statements, called for the development of relations based on successful three-decade-old commercial ties. They were meeting in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao.

Why the change of heart, setnaffa?
Didn’t you previously call for Korea to join Quad and participate in join exercises aimed at detering China with the Quad members?
You do realize that you are now endorsing the previous leftist government policies of not pissing China off and trying to acheive balance.
setnaffa doesn’t strike me as someone who has common sense so I’m guessing he’s trying very hard to cover up for Yoon, or maybe the PRC gave him a very big raise.
