This week, South Korea and France convened their 27th joint coordinating committee on nuclear energy, held in Saclay, a southwestern region of France. The two-day event, concluding on Friday local time, coincides with the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two nations, according to Seoul's science ministry. Organized since 1982 following a bilateral agreement on the peaceful use of nuclear energy in 1981, the meeting featured discussions on 21 areas of technological cooperation.
These include nuclear energy research, nuclear safety, and the nuclear industry. Both countries agreed to bolster cooperation in next-generation nuclear reactors and the nuclear energy supply chain, following memorandums of understanding signed during bilateral summits in April and September this year. The joint coordinating committee serves as a platform to further strengthen the cooperative framework between the two nations, aiming to drive nuclear technology collaboration.
