South Korea can negotiate with US on tariffs, acting president says

SEOUL, Feb 13 (Reuters) - South Korea's Acting President Choi Sang-mok said on Thursday the country should be able to negotiate with the Trump administration on tariffs as its investment in the United States is sizeable.

"We have things to give to the United States, because many companies, such as those in the shipbuilding sector," are making investment," Choi said, adding that South Korea's new investment in the United States in the last two years was higher than any other country.
