Poland and Korea Intensify Cooperation
The Polish-Korean Forum was one of the main events of the Krynica Forum 2023. The relationship between the two countries is becoming increasingly close. Meetings at the highest political and business level, and discussions on key issues were held there.
The Polish-Korean Forum, part of the Krynica event, was opened by the President of the Republic of Poland, Andrzej Duda, and the Prime Minister of Korea, Han Duck-soo. It was not the first meeting of highest-level representatives of both countries.
“Barely two months ago, the President of the Republic of Korea paid an official visit to Warsaw. At that time, we touched on a number of important topics, discussed prospects for strengthening bilateral relations; bilateral agreements were signed in our presence on cooperation in promoting trade and investment promotion, development of transport infrastructure, as well as on the participation of Polish and Korean companies in the Ukraine reconstruction process”, said Andrzej Duda during the opening ceremony of the Polish-Korean Forum at the Krynica Forum 2023. “The value of Korean direct foreign investments in Poland at the end of 2021 was USD 4.5 billion, compared to USD 3.9 billion in 2020. Importantly, these investments are characterised by an increasing degree of technological sophistication”, Polish president emphasised.
