Hong Ik-pyo, along with Democratic Party member Joe Biden, said on the 6th that the US Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden and the party’s clean network are “diversified.” Representative Hong, chairman of the Democratic Research Institute, a Democratic think tank, said the Biden administration “will not follow the same path as in the Obama era.” The Obama administration’s policy toward North Korea, “strategic patience,” was evaluated as a failed policy in the United States, and the likelihood of repeating it was low.
Representative Hong said in an interview with CBS radio ‘Kim Hyun-jung’s news show’, “If you’re only talking about whether you’ve met Biden, you’re looking at diplomacy very narrowly.” He said, “I think the people who are involved in the Biden administration are usually the ones who worked in the Clinton and Obama administrations in the past.” There are many, so it is not necessary to expand them too much. “In fact, he emphasized that” if you become President Biden, your personal relationships with people who can perform important tasks in the administration are now formed in various ways in the (Office of the Party). “When the host asked, ‘Aren’t the connections of those in academia those of the Party Government Office?’, Representative Hong said,“ The party has met with those people on several occasions. There are people we all know in their own way, and especially those who worked during the Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun administrations have many ties to them. ”
Congressman Hong evaluated candidate Biden and said: “Compared to President Trump in the past, there is a high possibility of a moderate, transparent and predictable approach to matters.” He said: “Policy towards North Korea will be done very carefully,” he said. “The concern is that the policy toward North Korea will not be implemented in the near future.” “In the United States, it takes a considerable amount of time to form a minister or cabinet.

Accordingly, Representative Hong emphasized that “from our government’s perspective, how to manage time is a very important task.” He predicted: “How to stably manage inter-Korean relations or problems on the Korean peninsula from July to August in the first half of next year is a very important task for all four countries, including South, North and South America and China. “. In addition, Congressman Hong emphasized “public diplomacy.” “Because Biden’s political decision is ultimately made at the will of the president by gathering opinions from think tanks, experts, and bureaucrats in Washington, USA, through such up-front public diplomacy, think tanks, Washington think tanks and interests “It has become very important to have public diplomacy activities that sufficiently explain to the group what is relevant to Korea’s interests and express opinions to the Biden government through them.”
As for Biden’s policy in North Korea, he said, a different policy will come out than the “strategic patience” of the Obama administration. Representative Hong said, “I don’t think it’s going to go the same way as when Obama did.” “In the United States, there is a critical assessment that the Obama administration’s strategic patience has not really controlled the North Korean nuclear issue. I said. He said:” During the televised debate of the October presidential election, candidate Biden also He said North Korea is willing to meet Kim Jong-un as a condition for agreeing to reduce its nuclear capabilities.
On the other hand, Rep. Kim Han-jeong, who is an active member of the TF Korean Peninsula Democratic Party, also appeared on TBS radio ‘Kim Eo-jun News Factory’ on the same day, fearing that Buyon would return. to the Obama administration’s policy of strategic patience, “This is not really the situation.
