韩国首尔-美国总统乔·拜登(Joe Biden)将于周四会见韩国和日本总统，预计此次峰会将标志着华盛顿方面的一次重大胜利，此前多年来，华盛顿一直在推动东京和首尔和睦相处，并从围绕日本战时行为的长期争端中走出来。
韩国总统尹雪玉将于周五前往戴维营，与拜登和日本首相岸田文雄举行历史性的三方峰会。美国与韩国和日本有单独的国防条约，这两个国家距离很近，但不是盟友。
这三个国家预计将宣布一项联合协议，即“戴维营原则”，这是一套新的议定书，旨在加强对恐怖主义的威慑朝鲜和中国.
预计该协议还将包括技术投资，以创建领导人级别的热线和共享情报的新机制。预计年度军事演习和年度峰会的计划将成为协议的一部分。
由于拜登政府的努力斡旋，尽管韩国和日本国内都有反对意见，但两国关系在过去的一年里有了显著改善。
最引人注目的是最近尹昶重在8月15日韩国从日本殖民统治下解放纪念日的演讲。在这一天，韩国过去的领导人传统上谴责日本，并要求日本就源于殖民统治的棘手问题“道歉”。
但尹本周表示，两国“现在是分享普遍价值观的基本伙伴”，他们的“安全不可分割地联系在一起”，需要“站在一起”

美国国务卿安东尼·布林肯周二表示，对美国来说，日韩都被视为“核心盟友——不仅是在该地区，而是在全世界”。
他补充说:“加强我们的三边合作对我们的人民、本地区和全世界都至关重要。这是一个好的力量倍增器。”
在周二的演讲中一个事件在纪念二战结束78周年之际，岸田文雄表示，自二战结束以来，日本“一直走在热爱和平的道路上”
他补充说，日本“决心与国际社会联手，尽最大努力解决世界面临的各种挑战。”
周四，尹启正将在他已故父亲、首尔延世大学名誉教授尹启正的葬礼后立即启程。他于周二去世，享年92岁。
US summit seen as potential milestone for Japan, South Korea relations: ANALYSIS
SEOUL, South Korea --President Joe Biden will meet on Thursday with his South Korean and Japanese counterparts, a summit that’s expected to mark a significant victory for Washington after years of pushing Tokyo and Seoul to get along and move on from a longstanding dispute over Japan's wartime practices.
South Korean President Yoon Seok-Yul is heading to Camp David for a historic trilateral summit on Friday with Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. The U.S. has separate defense treaties with South Korea and Japan, countries that are in close proximity but have not been allies.
The three countries are expected to announce a joint agreement, the "Camp David Principles," a new set of protocols to boost deterrence againstNorth KoreaandChina.
The agreement is also expected to include investment in technology to create a leader-level hotline and new mechanisms to share intelligence. Plans for annual military exercises and an annual summit are expected to be part of the agreement.
Relations between South Korea and Japan have drastically improved in the past year, despite opposition from within each country, as a result of the Biden administration's efforts to mediate.
Notably most recently was Yoon's speech on the Aug. 15 anniversary of South Korea's liberation from Japanese colonial rule. This is a day when past leaders of South Korea traditionally condemned and demanded "apology" from Japan on thorny issues stemming from colonial rule.
But Yoon said this week the two are "now fundamental partners sharing universal values" with their "security inextricably linked" and the need to "stand together."
For the United States, Japan and South Korea are both considered "core allies -- not just in the region, but around the world," U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Tuesday.
He added, "Strengthening our trilateral cooperation is critical to delivering for our people, for the region, and for the world. It’s a force multiplier for good.”
Speaking on Tuesday atan eventmarking the 78th anniversary of the end of World War II, Kishida said Japan since the end of the war "has consistently walked the path of a peace-loving nation."
He added that Japan was "determined to join forces with the international community and do its utmost to resolve the various challenges facing the world."
Yoon will travel on Thursday immediately after a funeral ceremony for his late father, Yoon Ki-jung, an honorary professor at Seoul's Yonsei University. He died Tuesday at the age of 92.
