South Korea is confident it can overcome any obstacles to a multi-billion dollar project to build a nuclear plant in the Czech Republic, despite appeals against the deal launched by EDF and Westinghouse,

President Yoon Suk Yeol said Friday that South Korea is not considering developing its own nuclear weapons and instead is focusing on strengthening deterrence with the United States to counter North Korea's nuclear threat.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol will visit the Czech Republic between September 19-22, his office said on Thursday. The visit comes after the Czech government picked South Korea's state-run Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power (KHNP) as the preferred bidder to build two nuclear reactors in July.

The majority of South Koreans think their president is not doing his job well, and there’s no shortage of explanations.

During his four-day visit, Yoon will hold talks with Czech President Petr Pavel and Prime Minister Petr Fiala to expand cooperation in nuclear energy, trade, investment, technology and other areas.

During his trip, President Yoon Suk Yeol visits the Czech Republic to strengthen nuclear cooperation and finalize reactor contracts.

President Yoon Suk Yeol held out the prospect of forging a "nuclear energy alliance" with the Czech Republic Thursday, pledging to ensure wide-ranging cooperation with Prague over the design and construction of nuclear reactors if a Korean consortium wins the country's power plant
