US Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden said on the 15th (local time) that after President Donald Trump took office, “North Korea has more missiles and nuclear weapons, and the world has become more dangerous. “. He also criticized President Trump’s failure in foreign policy, referring to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and others as “thugs.”

Former Vice President Biden participated in the ‘Town Hall’ type discussion hosted by ABC Broadcasting in the United States on this day, receiving questions and answers directly from voters. Trump’s criticism of North Korea’s policy came in the process of answering questions from residents who identified as a conservative salesperson.

The voter who said he had voted for Trump in the last presidential election said: “President Trump withdrew US troops from around the world to return home and mediated the peace negotiations between Israel and the Arab countries, which can be called a ‘modern miracle’ “” Isn’t that to be commended? ”

Former Vice President Biden said, “A little, but not a lot,” he said. “North Korea has more missiles and nuclear bombs, and Iran has come closer to making nuclear bombs.” Biden said under the Trump administration, “The world is less secure than in the past.”

“President Trump embraces all the bullies in the world,” he criticized, saying, “He is a North Korean leader and his best friend. They exchange love letters.”

Biden said President Trump is engaging with authoritarian leaders and undermining America’s relations with Democratic allies.

He said: “NATO (NATO) cannot believe in America, and America has become more isolated from the world than ever,” he said. “The United States first made America alone. He pointed out. President Trump” withdrew from almost all international organizations, “he said.” When you go to the United Nations, it’s literally ridiculed, not a metaphor. ”

Biden said: “It is not a matter of the president’s person, it shows that our country is not respected,” he criticized. “Trump’s foreign policy is neither coherent nor planned.”

Initially, a second television debate was scheduled between the presidential candidates that day, but when the organizer switched to a video discussion format due to the risk of corona 19 infection, President Trump declared his absence. Biden Camp then planned an ABC broadcast and town hall event, and President Trump also held a ‘fire event’ at the same time as NBC.

On the other hand, there were several confirmed cases of novel coronavirus (Corona 19) infection in and around the Biden camp on this day, and the camp received an emergency. Liz Allen, head of Vice President Kamala Harris’s office of public affairs, tested positive for Corona 19, and a member of the crew of the aircraft used by the camp was confirmed.

Candidate Harris is reportedly on the same plane as the two confirmed cases after the Arizona campaign on the 8th. Camp said: “Since that day, Harris has never met with the head of the Public Affairs Office, so there is no need to quarantine it according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines.

An employee of the charter company was also confirmed on the same plane as candidate Biden. “On the 12th and 13th, during the Ohio and Florida campaigns, Candidate Biden took the same plane as the confirmed person, but the distance is more than 50 feet (15 m), so it is not necessary to contain Biden “. .
