At the meeting, the two leaders evaluated the successful joint hosting of the first 'High-Level Meeting on the Responsible Military Use of Artificial Intelligence' by the two countries in February and agreed to closely cooperate to ensure that the second REAIM meeting, scheduled to be held in Korea next year, achieves concrete results.


They also expressed their commitment to cooperation in the semiconductor industry. The two leaders appreciated the close cooperation between the two countries in the semiconductor sector and agreed that such cooperation should be further deepened and expanded to stabilize the global semiconductor supply chain. They also plan to continue participating in international efforts to end the war in Ukraine and restore peace.



Meanwhile, this face-to-face summit between the two leaders is the third, following the summit at the NATO summit in Madrid in June last year and Prime Minister Rutte's official visit to Korea in November.
