President Moon Jae-in on April 18 arrived in Uzbekistan, where he visited Inha University’s campus in Tashkent to see Uzbek and Korean medical teams jointly demonstrating telemedicine.  This event was designed for Korea to outsource its digital health care industry and improve Uzbekistan’s medical services. The Uzbek medical industry seeks to incorporate Korea’s digital health care, which features cutting-edge medical services and information and communications technology. The two medical teams used X-rays and electrocardiography to check Uzbek patients who had returned to their homeland after receiving medical treatment from Inha University in the Korean port city of Incheon. 

President Moon Jae-in and Turkmen President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow on April 17 announced plans to boost bilateral cooperation in sectors such as energy and infrastructure.   At Oguzkhan Palace in the Turkmen capital of Ashgabat, the two leaders in their summit also agreed to forge ahead with Korea’s New Northern Policy and Turkmenistan’s development of its transportation infrastructure.  Both presidents signed six memorandums of understanding on prevention of double taxation by reducing taxes for Korean corporations and laborers in Turkmenistan, human resource development in both countries and cooperation in technology. 

The leaders of both Koreas and the U.S. have expressed willingness to resume talks, thus raising the possibility of more inter-Korean summits and bilateral dialogue between Pyeongyang and Washington.  President Moon Jae-in on April 15 told a meeting of his senior advisers at Cheong Wa Dae, "As soon as North Korea’s conditions are met, regardless of location or formality, I hope both Koreas can sit face-to-face and have a concrete and substantial discussion to produce results that exceed those of the two previous North Korea-U.S. summits." He also said Pyeongyang expressed its intent to continue dialogue by mentioning the speech of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to the Supreme People’s Assembly when Kim was re-elected chairman. President Moon said he "highly values and greatly welcomes Chairman Kim's standpoint" of resuming talks with Washington and holding a third summit with the U.S.
