Lee reassures farmers on CPTPP, says entry unlikely during term
President Lee Jae Myung on Monday acknowledged farmers' and fishers' concerns over South Korea's potential entry into the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), vowing to prevent unfair damage. Yonhap reports Lee said CPTPP entry is "inevitable" in the long term but that membership during his term is unlikely, with Korea unlikely to join by 2030. He stressed the need to lay groundwork despite political opposition, and told farmers he would not force unilateral losses, with no application for membership this year, according to Hankyung.
