President Trump has arrived in Japan, the second stop on his Asia trip. On the flight to Japan, Trump refused to rule out running for a third term, even though the 22nd Amendment forbids a president from being elected to office “more than twice.”
On Sunday, Trump met in Malaysia with the leaders of Thailand and Cambodia, who signed a deal to expand their ceasefire. On Thursday, Trump will meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in South Korea during the APEC summit. Over the weekend, the U.S. and China agreed to the framework of a new trade deal.
On Saturday, over a thousand South Korean protesters rallied in Seoul to protest ahead of Trump’s arrival.
Lee Mi-seon: “At a time when our country should be focused on managing our own finances, the U.S. is acting like a robber, sudden, coercive and almost plundering us. Asking us to invest $350 billion, which is an absurd amount, and nearly 80% of our foreign reserves in the U.S. all of a sudden is far too forceful. I believe South Korea should firmly express its refusal to this demand.”
