WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden will host South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol for a state visit on April 26, the White House said on Tuesday.
“The upcoming visit celebrates the 70th anniversary of the U.S.-ROK alliance, which is critical to advancing peace, stability, and prosperity for our two countries, the Indo-Pacific, and around the world,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.
The visit will highlight the United States’ “unwavering commitment” to South Korea, she said.
The state visit is the second of Biden’s administration, she said.
