Busan Port Authority (BPA, President Kang Jun-seok) hosted officials from the United Nations Command member countries stationed in Korea, who visited Busan to attend a military logistics seminar, on the 31st and supported their inspection of Busan Port.


The seminar, organized annually by the United States Forces Korea, was attended by over 40 participants, including generals from more than 10 countries such as the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and France.


The UN Command member country officials visiting Busan Port toured the North Port area aboard the port guidance vessel operated by Busan Port Authority and inspected the loading and transportation facilities for equipment and supplies provided by UN Command member countries in the event of an emergency on the Korean Peninsula.


The participants expressed admiration for the scale and facilities of Busan Port, the world's second-largest transshipment hub, stating, "We will continue to develop plans to enable the rapid deployment and support of equipment and supplies in emergencies."



The United Nations Command was established in July 1950 to support the Republic of Korea during the Korean War and currently undertakes missions related to the armistice agreement. The commander concurrently serves as the commander of the United States Forces Korea.
