Trump urges South Korea to approve LNG deal
U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Washington will not rush to announce South Korea's participation in a $50 billion liquefied natural gas project in Alaska, warning that Seoul could face higher costs if it does not sign the agreement soon—potentially imposing higher tariffs or doubling the amount. He emphasized that South Korea's involvement depends on the project's feasibility and compliance with legal procedures, noting that Seoul is currently considering participation based on its commercial interests. Additionally, Trump announced an extra $8.4 billion project to boost oil extraction, although this was not part of the original agreements between Washington and Seoul.
