South Korean political leaders vow to work together to resolve Japan dispute.
SEOUL - South Korea's President Moon Jae-in and leaders of the country's major political parties vowed on Thursday to work together to resolve a worsening political and economic dispute with Japan.
The political leaders said that Japan's export curbs were an"unjust economic retaliation" and agreed to work together to mitigate the impact the dispute may have on the South Korean economy, they said in a joint statement after the meeting. "We demand the Japanese government withdraw its retaliatory economic measures immediately, and seek a diplomatic resolution rather than take additional measures," the statement said, warning Tokyo not to remove South Korea from its"white list" of countries with minimum trade restrictions.
