Trump Set to Unveil Major South Korean Investment Projects
US President Donald Trump is set to make an announcement in the Oval Office alongside Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick on Wednesday, September 30, 2026. The report suggests that this could be related to major South Korean investment projects in the US, including a multibillion-dollar liquefied natural gas project in Alaska.
According to Reuters, Trump may announce plans to use South Korea's strategic investment fund for several major projects, with approximately $54 billion allocated for the Alaska LNG project. This is based on discussions with two people familiar with the matter.
The White House released a press schedule for Wednesday that includes Trump making an announcement with Lutnick at 3:30 p.m. Washington time, fueling expectations that the announcement could involve South Korea's investment projects.
