President Joe Biden said he, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol had completed a “great, great meeting” at “a historic place ... to make a historic moment” as the three leaders announced new joint security initiatives following a first-ever trilateral summit at the Camp David presidential retreat.
Mr Biden said he could not think of a more fitting location to begin the “next era of cooperation” between the US and two allies which have long been at odds despite each nation’s close ties with Washington, and pointed out that the site’s history “symbolises the power of new beginnings and new possibilities”.
