In the meeting, Park and Poland's vice minister of economic development and technology, Michal Jaros, agreed on the need to expand bilateral cooperation in critical minerals, battery, defense and other strategic industries amid the restructuring of global supply chains and intensifying technology war among major economies, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources said.
In particular, Park asked the Polish government to expand the use of batteries made by Korean companies in Poland's energy storage system project, stressing that Seoul is Warsaw's credible energy security partner, the ministry said.
Park also asked Poland to help reflect Korean firms' interests in the European Union's (EU) push to legislate the Industrial Accelerator Act, aimed at promoting made in EU products, the ministry added.
"Korea and Poland have built a stable foundation for cooperation based on mutual trust," Park said in a press release, expressing hope for deeper cooperation in supply chains, advanced technologies and strategic industries.
