South Korean President Lee Jae Myung may ”attend” NATO summit following G7

South Korean President Lee Jae-myung is scheduled to leave soon to attend the G7 summit in Canada and is in The Hague, Netherlands, on the 24th and 25th (local time).
It is also rumored that he may attend the NATO summit to be held in Seoul. This will be the first time that a South Korean president has attended two consecutive multilateral diplomatic events in just two weeks since taking office.
The NATO summit is expected to be an unprecedented one for President Lee, who is expected to have a hectic diplomatic schedule. A South Korean presidential office official said on the 13th that President Lee's attendance at the summit has not yet been confirmed.
This means that "nothing has been decided yet," but the White House said it would focus on preparing for the G7 summit and keep the possibility of attending the NATO summit under review until the very end.
In the political world, it was initially thought that President Lee would only attend the G7. This was because he was planning to focus on multilateral diplomacy to tackle the many domestic issues that have piled up immediately after taking office.
"Attending two consecutive meetings could be a burden," he said. However, he said he plans to "contact U.S. President Donald Trump for tariff negotiations" and "re-establish relations with Western countries and revise diplomatic strategies."
The president's office also told reporters the day before (12th) that he would attend the NATO summit.
"It's not confirmed yet, but there's a possibility that I will attend," he said.
