Yesterday in Seoul, Italian President Sergio Mattarella met with Korean President Yoon Seok-youl. The two Heads of State emphasized Korea and Italy's connection and affinity, not only geographically, but also because of shared principles such as democracy, freedom, and geopolitical perspectives in international alliances. Above all, the statement on the need for UN reform that "makes the UN more inclusive, more participatory, more expressive, and effectively expressive of the international community" lends itself best to working as a hook with the current global geopolitical situation. During his meeting with his counterpart in Seoul, Mattarella reaffirmed his commitment to strengthening the two countries' strategic partnership, which has already been in place since 2018, through increased political dialogue and greater collaboration in a variety of areas of mutual interest. The "vast possibilities for growth in the field of economic and trade relations," in particular, were emphasized, with a focus on "collaboration between the Italian and Korean industrial apparatuses, both in search of innovation and advanced technology".
