                        Wednesday, June 28, 2017

  Mr. MARINO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to welcome South Korean 
President Moon Jae-in on his first trip to the United States.
  South Korea is one of our staunchest allies and has been an excellent 
friend to the United States. I recently had the awesome opportunity to 
visit South Korea and was able to meet with many different government 
officials to hear more about the issues and concerns that are 
confronting the region. While there are several pressing concerns 
facing South Korea, and the region, if we remain committed as allies 
and friends we will continue to see peace and stability.
  I know that President Trump and President Moon will have an 
excellent, friendly, and productive meeting. I look forward to 
continuing to support South Korea as a Member of Congress and hope that 
President Moon enjoys his time in the United States.
