Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) issued the following statement after his meeting today with South Korea’s ambassador to the U.S., Ahn Ho-Young:
“South Korea is a key U.S. ally and, in many ways, continued peace and prosperity in Asia hinges on a continued deepening of our security and economic ties. Having visited South Korea in 2014, and being impressed by the strength of our alliance and by South Korea’s dramatic transformation in several decades from a developing country to one of the world’s most prosperous countries, it was my honor to welcome Ambassador Ahn to my office today on behalf of the people of Florida. Our state enjoys strong trade links with South Korea that have only deepened in recent years. I reiterated my commitment to the U.S.-Korea alliance, and we discussed how we can continue working closely together to deal with regional challenges, especially the threat posed by North Korea.
“I also thanked the ambassador for his government’s ongoing cooperation in making sure that Florida’s citrus farmers continue to enjoy the benefits of the U.S.-South Korea free trade agreement. Over the past two years, we’ve been able to work through implementation issues related to this agreement, which now has been hugely beneficial to Florida companies and communities. It is important that the lines of communication between us remain open so that nothing stands in the way of our continued trade and cooperation. I wholeheartedly reject the claims of those who try to argue that the U.S.-Korean alliance has not benefited America strategically and economically.”
