(11-8-2024) [Editor's Commentary] by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @U.S. President-elect Trump giving a speech accepting his election as the 47th President of the United States. @President-elect Trump and Donald Trump Jr. stand on the podium to deliver a speech accepting the election of the 47th President of the United States. Former U.S. President Trump succeeded in coming back to power. On the 5th, he overwhelmingly defeated Democratic presidential candidate Harris in the U.S. presidential election and was virtually elected as the 47th U.S. president. 트럼프 전 대통령이 다시 재집권에 성공했다. 지난 5일 미국 대통령선거에서 헤리스 민주당 대통령후보를 압도적으로 이기면서 사실상 47대 미 대통령으로 당선됐다. Until the election began on the 5th, all media outlets said that Trump and Harris were closely contested and that whoever won would win by a narrow margin. However, as the vote counting began, Trump's votes were ahead in each state, breaking expectations. The predictions of major media outlets were wrong. 5일 선거가 시작되기 전까지는 모든 언론들이 트럼프와 헤리스는 박빙이라면서 누가 이겨도 근소한 차이로 이길 것 이라고 평가했다. 하지만 개표가 시작되면서 각주에서 트럼프의 표가 앞서면서 예상을 깨고 있었다. 주요 언론들의 예측은 빗나갔다. Should we say that President-elect Trump is the...

(11-7-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller and Janne Pak at the State Department Press Briefing on November 7, 2024 Russia and North Korea are taking actions that go too far. Russia recently conducted new strategic nuclear exercises, and North Korea's Kim Jong-un announced that preparations were completed at the Punggye-ri nuclear facility. 러시아와 북한이 도를 넘는 행동에 나서고 있다. 러시아는 최근 새로운 전략 핵훈련을 실시했으며, 북한 김정은은 풍계리 핵시설에서 준비가 완료됐다고 공개했다. Nuclear cooperation between North Korea and Russia will pose a tremendous threat to the Korean Peninsula and the international community. In particular, it is noteworthy that Russian President Putin is warning the United States that nuclear use is possible. 북한과 러시아의 핵 협력은 한반도와 국제사회에 엄청난 위협을 주게될 것이다. 특히 푸틴 러시아 대통령이 미국을 향해 핵사용도 가능하다고 경고하고 있어 주목된다. Putin is threatening to use nuclear weapons if Russia is decisive in the Ukraine war. Kim Jong-un is also threatening the Korean Peninsula with nuclear weapons, so nuclear cooperation between Russia and North Korea is at a more dangerous level than ever. 푸틴은 우크라이나 전쟁에서 러시아가 결정적일 때 핵사용도 불사하겠다고 어름장을 놓고 있다....

It was reported that 5,000 North Korean soldiers were dispatched to Russia and were heading to Kursk after completing training. Meanwhile, the Secretary General of NATO also announced that he had confirmed the dispatch of North Korean troops. 북한군 5천명이 러시아에 파병된후 훈련을 마치고 쿠르스크로 향하고 있다고 보도됐다. 이런가운데 NATO사무총장도 북한군 파병을 확인했다고 밝혔다. South Korea dispatched a delegation to NATO to discuss sending North Korean troops, and announced that it would also dispatch a delegation to Ukraine to hear a briefing from the Ukrainian government on the specific role of the North Korean military. 한국은 NATO에 대표단을 파견하고 북한군 파병에 관해 논의를 했고 우크라이나에도 대표단을 파견해 북한군에 관한 구체적인 역할에 관해 우크라이나 정부로부터 브리핑을 들을것이라고 밝혔다. Considering the give-and-take military cooperation between North Korea and Russia, there are concerns that if the North Korean military's dispatch to Russia leads to Russia's provision of cutting-edge military technology, the threat to the Korean Peninsula will further increase....
