“Biden, instead of just defending peace, we should do it step by step”

Former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said on the 13th that US President-elect Joe Biden will not have a ‘surprise show’ and said: “It seems unlikely that the end of the war will be made righ now”. President Moon Jae-in proposed an end to the war to the international community through a speech at the UN General Assembly. The Moon Jae-in administration sees the end of the war as a gateway to denuclearization.

In a keynote address at the seminar jointly organized by the Joint Military University and the Korean Military Association held at the Seoul War Memorial on the same day, Ban said: “Biden-elect will be more comprehensive than proclaiming the end of the war. Or peace. It seems unlikely this will happen right away. He also said, “I don’t think Biden does anything close to a top-down surprise show like President Trump.”

Earlier, Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-wha said: “I explained to the Biden-elect officials about the declaration of the end of the war.” He also said that the Biden-elect staff he met this time were “people who have generally sent a lot of support to our peace process on the Korean peninsula.”

However, Ban predicted that “if North Korea dismantles some of its nuclear weapons and missiles, or if a clear agreement is reached, the UN Security Council could ease the sanctions.”

Ban said: “With the launch of the Biden government, the issue of denuclearization of North Korea can go up a roller coaster.” He said: “The Biden administration and the denuclearization of North Korea must be clearly defined and shared together,” he said. “The Republic of Korea and the United States must cooperate closely so that there is no room for light.”

Furthermore, Ban predicted that the transition from wartime operational control would be difficult to take place within President Moon Jae-in’s term. He said, “I would like to refrain from impatience when doing this kind of work,” he said. “When I am a minister, when I am president, I must.”

In a congratulatory comment, USFK Commander Robert Abrams said: “The perfect alliance is the single most powerful deterrent against potential hostile forces.” Said. Commander Abrams introduced that his father and younger brother, as well as his father-in-law and brother-in-law, had worked in Korea and said: “The Abrams family is committed to the alliance of the Republic of Korea and the United States.”

Defense Minister Seo Wook said in a congratulatory comment: “North Korea has not responded to our peace efforts and has maintained military tensions by recently launching new long-range ballistic missiles.” I’ll keep it. “
