KEI Co-hosts a Breakfast with Lee Myung-bak

On Friday April 18, KEI had the distinct privilege of co-hosting a breakfast in honor of ROK President Lee Myung-bak. Held at Blair House, the breakfast included 18 participants from current and former U.S. and Korean presidential administrations. President Lee beseeched participants to assist him in the passage of the KORUS FTA, and invited them to offer remarks, which were OFF-THE-RECORD. This successful event was only one small part of a very active schedule leading up to the U.S.-Korea presidential summit meeting at Camp David on Friday, April 18 and Saturday, April 19, and KEI is honored to have played a role in organizing the event with the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
