South Korea’s president described the country’s
escalating trade war with Japan as a wake-
up call to revamp its economy and issued a
nationalistic call for economic cooperation with
North Korea, which he said would allow the
Koreas to erase Japan’s economic superiority in
“one burst.”
President Moon Jae-in made the comments in
a meeting with senior aides to discuss Japan’s
imposition of trade curbs on South Korea. They
came as a surprise since North Korea has raised
tensions in recent weeks with tests of new short-
range weapons that pose a threat to South
Korea’s security.
