President Trump is in South Korea for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum as part of the last leg of his six-day Asia trip. Trump met with South Korea’s President Lee Jae-myung today and announced a trade deal. Outside the meeting, demonstrators protested Trump’s arrival in the country.
Yang Kyungsoo: “Korean workers believe that Korea has been under U.S. domination for a long time, since liberation. Now it is time to end that. They are angry because Trump’s visit to Korea is not about attending APEC. It is about pressuring South Korea into investing in the U.S. and accepting the tariffs. That’s why the workers come to Gyeongju feeling outrage about the visit.”
