(URGENT) Cho, Rubio agree to work together for good results from talks on S. Korea's investment projects in U.S.: foreign ministry

Foreign Minister Cho Hyun and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio met in Washington on Friday to collaborate on bilateral talks concerning South Korea's investment projects in the United States, according to the foreign ministry. The two nations have been engaged in discussions as part of their efforts to fulfill last year's bilateral trade deal, which committed Seoul to investing $350 billion in the U.S. The announcement of Korea's first investment project was initially scheduled for Friday (Korea time), but it has been postponed until the following week due to a delay in a related briefing to the National Assembly.

Cho Hyun and Rubio both expressed their commitment to ensuring that ongoing consultations related to strategic investment projects in the U.S. yield positive outcomes. They also agreed to maintain communication to faithfully implement key agreements, including the Joint Fact Sheet (JFS) signed by both leaders.
