Reciprocate：報答，回報

12月1日，韓國總統盧武鉉抵達歐洲三國行的第一站英國，進行短期國事訪問。這是兩國建交120年來，韓國總統首次訪問英國。外電報道如下：South Korean President Roh Moo Hyun began a two-day state visit to Britain on Wednesday at the invitation of Queen Elizabeth, the first such visit by a South Korean leader.

He was formally welcomed by the queen at a military ceremony in London before heading off to her official residence, Buckingham Palace, where he will stay during part of his trip.

The state visit, one of only two accorded to foreign heads of state each year, reciprocates Queen Elizabeth's state visit to South Korea in 1999.

Roh will meet British Prime Minister Tony Blair on Thursday when the two leaders are expected to discuss the protracted six-party talks on North Korea's nuclear arms ambitions, Iraq, bilateral relations and possibly the issue of greater regional cooperation between South Korea, China and Japan, according to a senior British government source.

Reciprocate表示“互給，互換，酬答，報答”，這里指盧武鉉對英國女王5年前訪韓的回訪（pay a return visit）。例如reciprocate favors（互相幫助）；reciprocate sb.'s good wishes（報答某人的好意）。

據英國媒體報道，韓方希望通過此次訪問進一步推動韓英在經貿和政治領域的合作。目前，韓國對歐洲地區投資的40％集中在英國。2003年，英韓貿易額約為68億美元。有關預測認為，兩國2004年的貿易額將增至90億美元左右。
