"Blue Watai Curse" appears again? The Korean political arena, which had been in stagnant for a long time, recently had another earthquake. First, Yoon Seok-yeol used his power to start an investigation into Moon Jae-in and his confidants, which showed signs of continuing the struggle between South Korea's political parties. But just a few days after the public opinion of "arrest Moon Jae-in" came out, Yoon Seok-yeol, as president, encountered a major ruling crisis and became the target of being criticized by thousands of people.
is obviously different from the previous political struggle in South Korea. In this political confrontation, external factors obviously occupy the dominant force. In other words, some superpowers were dissatisfied with Yoon Seok-yeol's policies, so they planned such a big drama.
As for who is "a bad move" against Yoon Seo-yeol? This question is not difficult to answer, and international media unanimously point to the United States on the other side of the ocean. The reason seems to be easy to explain. Last month, Pelosi flew to South Korea immediately after leaving Taiwan.
According to convention, the "three leaders" of the United States are coming to South Korea. Yoon Seo-young, as the president of South Korea, does not have to go to the airport to greet him. At least he should have a simple meeting at the presidential residence. But what is unexpected is that Yoon Seo-young "ignored" Pelo from beginning to end The existence of West did not have any interaction with this heavyweight American official, but instead only allowed South Korean Congress representatives to meet with him.
Yoon Seo-young also gave his reasons for the "refusing to see Pelosi". It was during the holidays at that time, so there was no meeting activity. However, according to Korean media reports, on the night Pelosi arrived in South Korea, Moon Jae-in appeared at the Seoul University Road Theater to enjoy the drama and had dinner with the actors after the drama ended.
Korean people also have different voices about Yoon Seo-yeol’s approach to this matter. Some people believe that Yoon Seo-yeol's approach may undermine the US-South Korea alliance, which is very inappropriate; others affirm their approach, believing that it is unnecessary to meet Pelosi.
Since participating in the presidential election, Yoon Seok-yeol has established his distinct image as a conservative, and regards the US-South Korea alliance as the top priority in South Korea, advocates taking tough measures against North Korea, and criticizes Moon Jae-in's weak policy towards China. Therefore, after Yoon Seo-yeol was elected president of South Korea, the Chinese people had great doubts about China-South Korea relations in the next five years, and were worried that the previous diplomatic achievements of China-South Korea would be ruined, and South Korea would embark on a dangerous relationship with China. road.
, the real development caught everyone off guard. Although the Yoon Seo-yue government did not stand on China's side on all issues towards China, and even made a big statement about China's actions in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea , it basically just stayed verbally. On the most sensitive issues of , THAAD, , chips, etc. between China and South Korea, the South Korean side fully considers China's feelings and does not fully follow US orders.
Last month, the Chinese and South Korean foreign ministers held talks in Qingdao . South Korea promises that it will not make it a stumbling block in bilateral relations. This means that the Yoon Seok-yeol government will not stubbornly regard it as "South Korea's internal affairs" but will fully consider China's concerns. As for the chip supply issue, South Korea said it has responded to whether to join the "Chip Four-Party Alliance". If South Korea joins, it must have two prerequisites: First, all parties must respect " one-China principle "; second , no restrictions on the export of chips to China.
Faced with the sudden escalation of confrontation between China and the United States, South Korea can propose effective response plans and try to maintain a balanced trend between China and the United States, which is obviously much better than Japan, which is also an East Asian country. However, it is precisely these actions that have quietly changed the US's attitude towards Yoon Seo-yeol. In addition to sparking a unanimous condemnation of Yoon Seo-yeol and his wife in China, they have also tried their best to back-sting them in terms of US-South Korea relations.
In order to alleviate the inflation situation within the United States, the Biden administration passed an "Inflation Reduction Act", a plan originally dedicated to promoting the recovery of the United States economy was reached at the expense of South Korea's interests.According to this bill, only the electric car that is "finally assembled in North America" can enjoy tax refund subsidies, while Korean companies rank second in the United States in sales of electric vehicles. Therefore, under this bill, South Korea undoubtedly bears the largest loss.
September 7, opposition leader Lee Jae-ming said that it was precisely because Pelosi was ignored by Yoon Seo-yeol during his time in South Korea that South Korea's electric vehicles were suppressed by the United States, and the current government should bear responsibility for this. Although the South Korean diplomatic department denies the connection between the two, the United States is probably clear about the truth. And if it is proved that there is a causal relationship between the two, then the superpower's mind is too narrow-minded.
