According to informed sources, if Donald Trump wins the election and increases pressure on trade partners, South Korea is considering a plan to increase energy imports from the United States. Officials in Seoul have spent several months preparing for either Trump or Harris to become president, and if Trump wins, this trade-dependent country is expected to face greater risks. A closely watched key area is South Korea's growing trade surplus with the United States. Insiders say that if trade imbalance becomes a problem during President Trump's term, the South Korean government may urge companies to increase purchases of American oil and natural gas.
