South Korea rises to a quick response to deal with chimneys on the United States attachment

The South Korean government held an emergency meeting and pledged to respond quickly to the arrests of hundreds of its citizens in a huge migration raid at the Hyundai factory in the United States.

Seoul sent diplomats to the site in Georgia, while LG Energy Solution, who runs the factory with Hyundai, said that it attaches most trade trips to the United States.

US officials have detained 475 people – most of them citizens of South Korea – who said they were illegally working in the battery facility, one of the largest foreign investment projects in the state.

The White House defended the process, and refused to fears that the raid could deter foreign investment.

“They were illegal and ice (the enforcement of migration and customs) doing its work,” President Donald Trump said in the wake of the raids on Friday.

The video released by Ice Asian workers was killed in front of a building, with some yellow jackets with names such as “Hyundai” and “LG CNS”.

“People are not allowed for short -term or recreational visas to work in the United States,” Ace said, adding that the raid was necessary to protect American jobs.

“This operation sends a clear message that those who take advantage of the system and undermine the workforce will be held accountable,” said Stephen Sherrank, the private agent in the statement on Saturday.

South Korea, a close American ally, has pledged tens of billions of dollars in investing in American manufacturing, partly to compensate for definitions.

The timing of the raid, as the two governments participated in sensitive trade talks, sparked anxiety in Seoul.

Trump has actively encouraged significant investments from other countries while tightening visa assignments for foreign companies.

Officials say that many of the arrested LG employees were on commercial trips with various visas or under the visa waiver program.

South Korea Foreign Minister Chu Hyun said he felt “a great sense of responsibility for arresting our citizens” as he chaired an emergency meeting on the case on Saturday.

He said that the government has established a team to respond to the arrests and that it might travel to Washington if necessary.

On Saturday, LG Energy Solution said that she would send the chief human resource staff Kim Qiu to to Georgia on Sunday.

He said in a statement to the South Korean media: “We are making comprehensive efforts to secure the quick version of individuals detained by our company and partners’ companies.”

“We confirm regular medications for families through an emergency network of detainees and plan to request the delivery of the necessary medicines to those detainees.”

The company said it is suspending most of the commercial flights to the United States and directing employees on a mission in the United States to return home immediately.

The South Korean media has been widely described as a “shock”, with the Dong-A Ilbo newspaper that it could have “a chilling effect on our business activities in the United States.”

The factory, which manufactures new electric cars, was described by the Republican Governor in Georgia as the largest economic development project in the state’s history, with a need of 1,200 people.

The workers detained at the ICE facility in Folkson, Georgia, were held until the agency decides the place of its movement after that.

LG Energy Solution said 47 of its employees and about 250 contractors for the joint venture factory were arrested.
