Korea, Poland discuss expanding defense, energy, infra cooperation

South Korea and Poland explored avenues to bolster defense, energy, batteries, and infrastructure collaboration during their recent joint economic committee meeting in Warsaw. The seventh round of talks, co-chaired by Korea's Deputy Minister for Economic Affairs Park Jong-han and Poland's Deputy Minister of Economic Development and Technology Michal Baranowski, discussed progress on agreements signed between President Lee Jae Myung and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk in April.

In addition, they examined potential growth in battery and energy supply chains, infrastructure projects such as an airport link, and advanced technologies like space and drone capabilities.
