TOKYO (AP) — South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, in his first summit with Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba on Saturday, stressed the importance of setting aside their past differences as they face common challenges from the United States, their mutual ally. The two agreed to cooperate in areas that include clean energy, artificial intelligence, low births, the aging population and disaster prevention. They reaffirmed South Korea and Japan would work together and with the United States toward ending North Korea’s nuclear and missile development programs.
