Last September, President Yoon visited Canada and held a summit, upgrading the bilateral relationship from a strategic partnership to a comprehensive strategic partnership. At that time, President Yoon stated, "Going forward, based on shared culture between the Republic of Korea and Canada, I believe we are truly friend-like countries that can cooperate and explore development directions together on global agendas such as minerals, new technologies, natural resource supply chains, health crises, and climate change."

Meanwhile, President Yoon will meet with President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan on the same day. As the beginning of the economic diplomacy emphasized by President Yoon, he will hold expanded and private talks with President Mohamed to discuss ways to strengthen cooperation in areas such as nuclear power and defense industry.
