South Korea is moving to pick up Korean workers following a raid in the U.S. state of Georgia last week, a Korean presidential official said on Sunday as the Trump administration promised more raids on businesses.
South Korea’s presidential office said late on Sunday the negotiations to release about 300 South Koreans who were detained have concluded and processing for their release from custody is ongoing,
A chartered plane will be flown to bring them back as soon as the processing by the two countries is complete, the office said in a statement. It did not provide details of what administrative steps are being taken.
