The United States and South Korea have been fighting for Kwon’s extradition since he was arrested in March 2023.
United States prosecutors will contest the latest Montenegrin high court ruling that has placed Terraform Labs’ Do Kwon headed for South Korea extradition.
The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) told Bloomberg that it “continues to seek Kwon’s extradition in accordance with relevant international and bilateral agreements and Montenegrin law,” per a March 7 report.
South Korea and the United States filed extradition requests for Kwon in March 2023 but have since been fighting over who gets the first bite of the apple.
