Peruvian Ambassador Daul Matute Mejia presented his credential letters to South Korean President Moon Jae-in, the Andean country's Foreign Affairs Ministry reported.
Such credentials recognize the appointment of Matute as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of Peru to the Asian country.
On the occasion, the Peruvian diplomat extended President Martin Vizcarra's greeting to the South Korean leader and highlighted the excellent bilateral ties uniting both nations, within the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.
In this sense, he also mentioned bilateral trade —which has been growing steadily since the Peru-South Korea FTA's entry into force in 2011— and the Andean nation's principled stance regarding the
denuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
