What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Washington partially restricted Seoul's access to intelligence on North Korea-related technology since April, following a protest over information disclosed regarding a North Korea nuclear facility. The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources denied a local report claiming Washington Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick expressed distrust of the National Intelligence Service during strategic investment negotiations. The National Intelligence Service also issued a notice stating it had received no information regarding the alleged remark.
