The Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency (Kotra) said Monday it has dispatched an auto parts delegation to the U.S. state of Georgia to help domestic manufacturers explore investment opportunities amid rising protectionist trade measures from Washington.
 
Jointly organized by the Gyeonggi provincial government, the auto parts investment delegation visited the cities of Atlanta and Savannah for three days from Wednesday, with 10 Korean auto parts firms participating.
