00:04that ongoing tariff negotiations with the U.S. are unsettling his country's foreign exchange market.
00:10However, he expresses confidence that both sides will ultimately reach a practical and commercially sound agreement.
00:18His remarks came during a meeting with U.S. lawmakers in New York on Monday
00:23as he was there to attend the United Nations General Assembly.
00:26The two countries are currently in talks to revise trade terms,
00:30including efforts to reduce import duties imposed during the Trump administration.
00:35Lee has previously warned that South Korea's proposed large-scale investments in the U.S.,
00:40seen as a key component of the deal, could impact national foreign exchange reserves.
00:46Despite the risks, Lee maintained a positive outlook
00:48as he believed a balanced resolution would be found through continued dialogue.
