South Korea President Yoon sees ‘new future’ with U.S. based on free markets, cultural exchange -
Mr. Yoon, who spoke in English, hailed the conception of the U.S. as a new nation steeped in liberty and said bipartisan support in Washington “dignified my visit.”
“North Korea has abandoned freedom and prosperity and abandoned peace,” he said. “To deter its reckless behavior, the alliance must stand united with determination.”Vice President Kamala Harris and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy presided over the joint meeting. He also name-checked U.S. lawmakers with South Korean heritage, allowing them to stand and receive applause.
Mr. Biden and Mr. Yoon announced an agreement designed to deter North Korea from launching a nuclear attack, including the deployment of a U.S. nuclear-armed submarine to South Korea for the first time in nearly 40 years. He said that new prosperity was limited to free nations, while the Soviet Union backed North Korean forces in the next great conflict on the Korean peninsula.
