Government ministers from Japan and Korea have attacked the vaccine nationalism of the European Union, urging the bloc not to adopt export controls on COVID-19 vaccines and urging international cooperation.

Kang Kyung-Wha, South Korea’s foreign minister, said vaccine nationalism was fuelling “global disunity” and leaving many developing nations out in the cold.

SK, Japan, and China needs to work more closely in technological, medical, economical and political spheres.
