A symposium on the future of strategic relations between Korea and the EU will be held at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS) in Dongdaemun District, eastern Seoul, on Friday.

Experts in related fields will gather in person and virtually to discuss the topic for two hours as President Yoon Suk-yeol returns from a trip to attend a NATO Summit in Madrid.

The symposium, titled “EU Korea – What the Future Will Bring,” is being co-hosted by the HUFS Jean Monnet EU Centre and the European Chamber of Commerce in Korea.

Panelists include Ramon Pacheco Pardo, a professor of international relations at King’s College London and the KF-VUB Korea chair at the Brussels School of Governance of Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
