President Biden said, “Not since the Civil War has freedom and democracy been under such attack in America as it is today.”
(3-7-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @President Joe Biden gave his last State of the Union address of the year in the Senate and House of Representatives on the 7th (local time).(3-7-2024) President Joe Biden gave his last State of the Union address of the year at the Senate and House of Representatives meetings on the 7th (local time). Ahead of the second presidential election in November, he gave a powerful speech for 1 hour and 16 minutes in prime time at 9 PM, watched by tens of millions of people. 조 바이든 대통령은 7일(현지시간) 상.하원회의에서 올해 마지막 국정연설을 했다. 11월 2기 대선을 앞두고 저녁 9시 수천만명이 시청하는 황금시간대에 1시간 16분동안 강렬한 연설을 했다. This State of the Union address was met with a lot of criticism of the former U.S. president because it was the first time in 132 years that a current or former U.S. president had a rematch ahead of the presidential election. Every time that happened, Democratic lawmakers shouted “four more years.” 이번 국정연설은 132년 만의 전현직 미국대통령이 대선을 앞두고 재 대결을 하는 탓에 전직 대통령에 대한 비판도 많았다. 그럴 때 마다 민주당 의원들은 “4년 더”를 외쳤다. Moreover, it...

How is the U.S. handling China's overseas secret intelligence agency, ‘Confucius Institutes’?
(3-6-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Janne Pak at the White House Press Briefing on March 6, 2024. As competition between the United States and China intensifies, President Biden recently signed an ‘executive order’ prohibiting the sale of American personal and national information to countries deemed to be of concern. There are six countries on the list of countries of concern, including China and North Korea. 미중간의 경쟁이 심화되고 있는 가운데 최근 바이든 대통령은 우려국으로 판단되는 나라들에게 미국인 개인과 국가정보를 판매하지 못하도록 하는 내용의 ‘행정명령’에 서명했다. 우려국 리스트에는 중국과 북한을 포함해 6개국이 있다. In particular, this is a measure to completely block actions that threaten national security through the misuse of Americans' personal and national information by hostile countries. 특히 이는 적성국들에 의해 미국인의 개인정보와 국가정보가 악용되어 국가안보를 위협하는 행위를 전면 차단 하기 위한 조치이다. China is stealing information through random information activities through TikTok and Confucius Institutes installed overseas. In particular, there is concern that Confucius Institutes are secretly operated around the world, including in the United States and South Korea. 중국은 틱톡과 해외에 설치해 놓은 공자학원등을 통해 무작위 정보활동을 하면서 정보를...

State Department: 'Interim Step' for North Korea’s denuclearization_ “Doesn’t mean a change in policy toward North Korea.
(3-5-2024)   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 March 5, 2024. The Biden administration has consistently emphasized that the ultimate goal of North Korea's denuclearization is complete and verifiable denuclearization. 바이든 행정부의 북한 비핵화의 궁극적인 목표는 완전하고 검증 가능한 비핵화라고 일관성 있게 강조해 왔다. At the recent CSIS conference, Mira Rapp-Hooper, White House NSC senior adviser for Asia, said that 'interim step' could be considered in the process of North Korea's denuclearization, leading to strong disagreement among Korean Peninsula experts that this could send the wrong signal to Kim Jong-un. This is because Kim Jong-un has expectations that the United States will tolerate nuclear weapons. 최근 CSIS컨퍼런스에서 미라 랩-후퍼 백악관 NSC 아시아 담당 선임보좌관은 북한 비핵화를 위한 과정에서 ‘중간조치‘를 고려해 볼수 있다고 발언함으로서 한반도 전문가들은 이것이 김정은에게 자칫 잘못된 신호를 줄수 있다는 이견이 만만치 않고 있다. 김정은은 미국이 핵을 용인해 줄 것이라는 기대를 갖고 있기 때문이다. Why is Senior Advisor Rap Hooper making a gesture that the United States can negotiate with North Korea at this point? There has been no dialogue between the United States and...

Russia's nuclear war warning is irresponsible and inappropriate rhetoric._U.S. does not send troops to Ukraine.
(3-4-2024)   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 March 4, 2024. Russian President Putin recently warned that nuclear war would occur if Western countries send troops to Ukraine. Russia is a nuclear state. North Korea also actually possesses nuclear weapons. However, North Korea's nuclear weapons are not recognized by the international community. 푸틴 러시아 대통령은 최근 서방국가들이 우크라이나에 파병을 하면 핵전쟁이 일어날 것이라고 경고했다. 러시아는 핵보유국이다. 북한도 사실상 핵을 보유하고 있다. 하지만 북한은 국제사회가 핵을 인정하지 않고 있다. As Russia and North Korea engage in military cooperation, the war in Ukraine shows no signs of ending easily. Russian President Putin is afraid that the United States and other Western countries will send troops to Ukraine and end the war quickly. 러시아와 북한이 군사협력을 하면서 우크라이나 전쟁이 쉽게 끝날 조짐을 보이지 않고 있다. 푸틴 러시아 대통령은 미국과 서방국가들이 우크라이나에 병력을 파병해 전쟁을 속전속결로 끝낼까봐 두려워하고 있다. Putin is trying hard to lead the Ukraine war to a Russian victory by threatening with nuclear weapons. As long as the United States and its allies are helping Ukraine, things will...

State Department: Close cooperation between the U.S. and South Korea on North Korea_China violate sanctions against North Korea
(2-29-2024)   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 Feb 29, 2024. At the U.S.-ROK foreign ministers' meeting yesterday, discussions focused on cooperation between South Korea and the U.S. to respond to North Korea's provocations, North Korea-Russia military cooperation, and arms trade. 어제 한미 외교장관 회담에서 북한의 도발이슈와 북러 군사협력, 무기거래등에 대응할수 있는 한미간의 협력에 대한 논의가 중점 논의됐다. The reason North Korea continues to engage in provocations is not only because of Russia's background, but also because China is also helping North Korea. China is supplying fuel and used ships to North Korea behind closed doors in violation of sanctions against North Korea. 북한이 계속 도발을 하고 있는 것은 단지 러시아의 뒷 배경 뿐만아니라 중국도 북한을 돕고 있기 때문이다. 중국은 대북제재를 위반하면서 물밑으로 북한에게 유류 및 중고선박을 공급해 주고 있다. As long as Russia and China are helping North Korea, North Korea's provocative actions will never stop. The United States believes that China will persuade North Korea to stop its bad behavior, but in reality, China is not playing its role properly. There was a mistake in...

U.S.-ROK Foreign Ministers' Meeting_ Strengthening close communication to firmly respond to North Korean threats
(2-28-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul and Secretary of State Tony Blinken meet and shake hands at the State Department building prior to their meeting on the 28th.(2-28-2024) U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken and South Korean Foreign Minister Cho Tae-yul met today (28th, local time) at the State Department in Washington, D.C. to discuss cooperation, including ways to cooperate with South Korea, the United States, and Japan in response to North Korea's provocations. 토니 블링컨 미 국무장관과 조태열 한국 외무장관이 오늘(28일, 현지시간) 워싱턴 D.C.국무성 청사에서 만나 북한의 도발에 대응해 한미일 공조방안등 협력에 관해 논의했다. The two ministers promised to respond resolutely to any provocations by North Korea and to strengthen communication more actively than ever before to realize the vision of the ROK-U.S. alliance. 양국 장관은 북한의 어떠한 도발에 단호히 대응하고 한미동맹의 비전을 구현하기 위해 그 어느때 보다 적극적인 소통을 강화하기로 약속했다. In his remarks, Minister Cho Tae-yul said, "South Korea and the United States agreed to condemn North Korea's provocations and actions that violate UN Security Council resolutions, such as North Korea's export of ballistic missiles to Russia." He added that in the cooperation between...

White House: Additional artillery support to Ukraine is South Korea's own military decision.
(2-28-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Janne Pak at the White House Press Briefing on Feb 28, 2024. As U.S. support to Ukraine is delayed, the U.S. is requesting the provision of additional weapons, including artillery shells, from South Korea and its allies. 우크라이나에 대한 미국의 지원이 늦어지면서 미국은 한국과 동맹들에게 포탄등 추가무기제공을 요청하고 있다. Last week, a delegation of U.S. senators visited Ukraine and said that Ukraine's support was also necessary to deter North Korea. 지난주 미의회 상원의원 대표단들이 우크라이나를 방문했고 우크라이나의 지원은 북한을 억제하기 위해서도 필요하다고 밝혔다. This is a warning that if Ukraine loses in the war between Russia and Ukraine, it could have a threatening impact on the Korean Peninsula. 러시아와 우크라이나 전쟁에서 우크라이나가 패배를 한다면 한반도에도 위협적인 영향이 올수있다는 예고이다. Russia relies on North Korea and Iran for weapons. South Korea has already provided a lot of non-lethal weapons to Ukraine. 러시아는 북한과 이란에 무기를 의존하고 있다. 한국은 우크라이나에 이미 비살상무기를 많이 제공해 왔다. At the White House briefing today (the 28th, local time),Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre responded to my question, “The U.S. want South Korea to provide...

State Department: Encouragement of security support for Ukraine, comprised of more than 50 allied countries, including ROK
(2-28-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & Stat Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller and Janne Pak at the State Departement Press Briefing on Feb 28, 2024. The United States again requested Korea to provide more artillery support to Ukraine. Korea has already provided many non-lethal weapons to Ukraine. 미국이 다시 한국에 우크라이나에 포탄지원을 더 요청했다. 한국은 이미 많은 비살상무기를 우크라이나에 지원해 왔다. The United States and the EU have continued to provide weapons and other support to Ukraine, but are struggling because the national security budget support for Ukraine has not been passed by the U.S. House of Representatives. 미국과 EU는 우크라이나를 위해 무기등을 계속 지원해 왔지만 미 하원으로 부터 우크라이나에 대한 국가안보예산 지원이 통과 되지 않고 있어 고심하고 있다. Allies are also nervous under pressure that if this budget is not passed, Russia may declare victory in the war. 이 예산이 통과되지 않으면 러시아가 전쟁승리를 선언할지 모른다는 압박감에 동맹국들도 긴장하고 있다. On the 28th, the U.S. State Department reaffirmed its position to encourage security support from allies for Ukraine, which is at war with Russia. 미국 국무부는 28일 러시아와 전쟁 중인 우크라이나에 대한 동맹국들의 안보 지원을 독려한다는 입장을 재확인했다. At a...

President Biden signs executive order banning the sale of information about U.S. individuals and U.S. government to adversaries
(2-28-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) @President Joe Biden speaking in the East Room of the White House. On the 28th, President Joe Biden signed an ‘executive order’ prohibiting the sale of American personal information to countries deemed to be ‘countries of concern.’ 조 바이든 대통령은 28일 ‘우려국’으로 판단되는 나라들에 미국인 개인정보를 판매하지 못하도록 하는 내용의 ‘행정명령’에 서명했다. This is a measure to prevent the misuse of Americans' personal information by hostile countries, and it will also completely block hostile countries from threatening national security by abusing Americans' sensitive personal information. 이는 적성국들에 의해 미국인의 개인정보가 악용되는 행위를 막기 위한 조치이며 또한 적국들이 미국인의 민감한 개인정보를 악용해 국가 안보를 위협하는 일을 전면 차단할 것이라는 내용이다. The White House said in a press release on the 28th (local time), “The President's executive order focuses on Americans' most personal and sensitive information, including genetics, biometrics, personal health, geographic location, financial data, and certain types of personally identifiable information. “There is,” he said. It is pointed out that enemy countries are threatening American national security by abusing Americans' sensitive personal information. 백악관은 28일(현지시간) 보도자료를 통해 “대통령의 행정명령은 유전, 생체 인식, 개인 건강, 지리적 위치, 금융 자료...

"The concerns over North Korea-Russia arms trade were made clear to many countries."
(2-26-2024)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon & Congress Correspondent) “The United States continues to engage in dialogue with Ukraine about the need for anti-corruption measures.” @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Matthew Miller and Janne Pak at the State Department Press Briefing on Feb 26, 2024. While the international community is concerned about the arms trade between North Korea and Russia, U.S. Congressional delegation members, including Senator Chuck Schumer and Senate Majority Leader Jack Reed, made a surprise visit to Ukraine on the 23rd. They expressed their will to continue providing support to Ukraine to strengthen deterrence against North Korea. 국제사회가 북한과 러시아의 무기거래를 우려하고 있는 가운데 척슈머 상원의원과 잭리드 상원 운사워원장등 미 의회 대표단들이 23일 우크라이나를 전격 방문했다. 이들은 대북 억지력을 강화하기 위해 우크라이나에 지속적인 지원 의지를 표명했다. The U.S. State Department repeatedly pointed out the seriousness of the arms trade between North Korea and Russia and announced that it had notified several countries of this. 미 국무부는 북한과 러시아의 무기거래의 심각성을 거듭 지적하면서 여러 나라에 이를 알렸다고 밝혔다. It was also reported that internal defense industry corruption in Ukraine has reached a serious situation. Ukraine is at war and receiving massive support from the...
