South Korea’s president said on Thursday that South Korean companies will likely hesitate to maintain or make direct investments in the United States if the US fails to improve its visa system for Korean workers.
In a news conference marking 100 days in office, Lee called for improvements in the US visa system as he spoke about the 4 September immigration raid in Georgia that resulted in the arrest of more than 300 South Korean workers at a battery factory under construction at Hyundai’s sprawling auto plant in Georgia.
