S. Korean PM meets Trump after parliament passes U.S. investment bill

By Song Sang-ho

WASHINGTON, March 13 (Yonhap) -- South Korean Prime Minister Kim Min-seok met with U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington on Friday, Kim's office said, after the Asian country's parliament passed a special bill on its commitment to investing US$350 billion in the United States.

The two met at the White House as the passage of the bill paved the way for the implementation of Seoul's investment pledge under a bilateral trade deal that the two governments struck last year.
