SEOUL: The senior U.S. on Wednesday met officials in Seoul amid worsening economic and political dispute between Japan and South Korea, international media reported.
Asked if the US would play a role to resolve the dispute, David Stilwell, a top U.S. diplomat for East Asia policy, said he would engage in issues related to the United States and South Korea.
The United States has been reluctant to wade into the row, however, the row, that threatens global supplies of smartphones and memory chips, has overshadowed Stilwell’s visit. (Agencies)
