Abstract:

South Korean President Lee Jae-myung, who took office in June 2025, intends to pursue a pragmatic foreign policy, with the alliance with the U.S. remaining its cornerstone. Unlike his predecessor Yoon Suk-yeol, he believes that close cooperation between South Korea and the U.S. should not result in deteriorating relations with China. The new administration's credibility and effectiveness will be tested by its ability to maintain cooperation with Japan and improve inter-Korean relations. Guided by the primacy of economic interests, the Republic of Korea will continue to seek closer ties with European countries, including Poland.
