SEOUL: South Korean Overseas Minister Cho Tae-yul stated on Wednesday (Dec 18) that President Yoon Suk Yeol’s short-lived bid to impose martial law had created some limitations in speaking with the workforce of US President-elect Donald Trump and undercut both sides’ political momentum.
At a uncommon joint information convention for overseas media, Cho and Finance Minister Choi Sang-mok sought to reassure Seoul’s allies and calm market jitters because the martial regulation try that shocked the nation and triggered the most important political disaster in a long time.
Cho stated Seoul had constructed a community and communication channels with Trump’s marketing campaign that have been “stronger than these of some other nation”, however the martial regulation order undermined “the political momentum” between the 2 sides.
“It’s true that there have been some disruptions with communication over the previous two weeks resulting from this example,” Cho stated.
