The 10th round of talks regarding a trilateral Free Trade Agreement between China, Japan, and South Korea has begun in Seoul.

During the talks, negotiators will hold in-depth discussions over the trade of tangible goods, services, and investment.

The trilateral talks began in 2012, but have seen little progress due to tensions in the region.

The talks got back on track following a joint statement endorsed by the leaders of the three countries in November last year.
