The BBC and the Guardian pay attention to the promise of abolition of the Ministry of Leisure… Le Figaro “The most controversial in the history of Korean democracy”
Germany’s SZ·FAZ Interested in Relations with the US, the Public and North Korea… “Achieving unity is the urgent priority”
(Berlin, Paris = Yonhap News) Correspondent Lee Yul Hyeon Hye-ran = European media outlets such as Britain, Germany and France also highlighted the news of the election of Candidate Seok-yeol Yoon, the Power of the People, in the 20th presidential election of the Republic of Korea.
Media outlets paid attention to the fact that President-elect Yoon was a newcomer from the prosecution with no political experience, and predicted that on the international stage, he would voice a stronger voice once morest North Korea and China than the current South Korean government.
The BBC reported that President-elect Yoon was called “a rookie in politics,” and said, “After fierce competition, he won the final tally with the lowest difference in history of less than 1%.”
The BBC reported that real estate prices, economic growth, youth unemployment, and gender inequality were the concerns of voters in this election in Korea, and that President-elect Yoon made the abolition of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family a central campaign promise.
He added, “During the election campaign, he leaned heavily towards young male supporters, and some of them argued that there was no systemic gender discrimination in Korea.”
The British daily The Guardian reported that “a former prosecutor with a conservative tendency” “won following a fierce fight” in “an election that was particularly bitter, stained with scandal and slander.”
The Guardian wrote, “He, who admitted himself to be an ‘anti-feminist’, has pledged to abolish the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family, claiming that Korean women are not subjected to systemic discrimination despite a lot of evidence.”
The French daily Le Figaro introduced the president-elect Yoon in an article from Seoul as “a political rookie who will seize power as one of the world’s top 10 economic powers” who won “the most controversial presidential election in Korea’s few democratic history”.
Le Figaro said that President-elect Yoon, who broke the tradition that the conservatives and progressives alternately occupied the Blue House for 10 years, is working closely with the United States and foretells a hard line in North Korea and China.
The French business magazine Legeco reported that President-elect Yoon entered politics last year following completing a splendid career as a prosecutor and defeated the center-left ruling party candidate by a very narrow margin.
Rezeko said that President-elect Yoon, who promised to strengthen relations with the United States, will take a hardline stance on North Korea, which resumed missile tests following negotiations stalled, and demand more of China, South Korea’s biggest economic partner. .
Germany’s Süddeutsche Zeitung (SZ) said that President-elect Yoon won by the narrowest margin in the history of the Korean presidential election, and pointed out that in reality, achieving unity would be a priority and a challenge for him.
SZ predicted that his election would change the atmosphere in East Asia. Domestically, there is an expectation for better economic policy, and overseas, there is an atmosphere to expect a clearer stance on conflicts with China and North Korea, the newspaper reported.
Germany’s Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) reported that President-elect Yoon announced that he would strengthen the alliance with the United States externally, and that it is expected to take a pro-American route between the United States and China.
FAZ pointed out that President-elect Yun Seok-yeol is expected to take a new path in relations with North Korea and emphasized that North Korea must irreversibly give up its nuclear weapons in order to cooperate with the South.
President-elect Yoon did not rule out the possibility of a preemptive strike for defense, and if necessary, he announced that he would promote the expansion of the US-led high-altitude missile defense system (THAAD), FAZ reported.
