Minister of Foreign Affairs Kang, Kyung-wha attended the 9th multilateral video conference among the foreign ministers of the “Ministerial Coordination Group on COVID-19” on June 9, and suggested that countries, while maintaining stable disease prevention and control, further step up efforts to continue essential exchanges with one another in a bid to maintain global supply chains and achieve economic recovery. Minister Kang went on to explain the situation in the ROK, saying that since the initial stages of the COVID-19 crisis, the ROK government has continued to seek ways to enable people’s economic activities and daily lives while curbing the spread of COVID-19 infections and has steadily been working for “distancing in everyday life” to take root.
