Following the arrest of hundreds of South Korean workers at a Georgia construction site, President Trump clarified his stance on foreign workers. He stated he doesn't want to discourage investment and welcomes foreign experts temporarily to the US to teach specialized skills in areas like semiconductor manufacturing. While acknowledging the arrests, Trump emphasized the importance of learning from these experts to improve US manufacturing capabilities. The arrests, described as 'bewildering' by South Korea's president, prompted calls for an apology from Korean trade unions.
