President Lee Says Political Violence is a Threat to Democracy After Trump Assassination Attempt
So will President Lee be saying political violence is a threat to democracy the next time KCTU thugs attack someone?:
President Lee Jae Myung on Sunday called political violence a “grave threat” to democracy that cannot be justified under any circumstances, following a shooting at the White House correspondents’ dinner.
Lee made the remarks after U.S. President Donald Trump said Saturday an alleged shooter from California had been apprehended after gunfire erupted at the annual event in Washington.
“Political violence is a grave threat that undermines the very foundation of democracy and can never be justified under any circumstances,” Lee wrote in a message on X, formerly Twitter, posted in both Korean and English.
“It is especially regrettable that such an incident occurred at an event meant to reaffirm the role of the press and freedom of speech,” Lee said, adding he is “deeply shocked” by the violent incident.
