President Yoon Suk Yeol on May 17 will host a summit with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau at the Office of the President in Seoul.


 


The prime minister was invited to visit Korea by President Yoon during the latter's trip to Canada in September last year, presidential spokesperson Lee Do Woon said in a news release.


 


To mark the 60th anniversary of bilateral ties, the Canadian leader's trip will see discussion of stronger cooperation in supply chains and expansion of science and technology and interpersonal exchanges. His visit is the first of its kind in nine years.


 


Both leaders on May 17 will hold a summit, after which they will attend a joint news conference. An official dinner will follow.


 


This will be the third summit between the two sides since President Yoon assumed office. The first was in June last year on the sidelines of the NATO Summit in Madrid, Spain, and the second last September when President Yoon visited Ottawa, Canada.
