US President Trump wrote on the morning of October 30: "South Korea has agreed to pay the US $35 billion in order to get the US to lower tariffs imposed on South Korea. In addition, they have also agreed to purchase a large amount of our oil and natural gas, and investments by wealthy South Korean companies and businessmen in our country will exceed $60 billion. Our military alliance is more solid than ever before, and based on this, I have approved them to build nuclear-powered submarines to replace their current diesel-powered submarines, which are far less flexible than nuclear-powered ones. This was a very great visit, with a great prime minister!"
[Witty] Comments: Trump's self-praising words seem to be full of glory, but in fact, there are many flaws. The so-called "agreement" by South Korea to pay $35 billion, purchase a large amount of energy, and attract over $60 billion in investment is merely an expression of helplessness under his bullying. South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol had previously stated that South Korea could not afford the $35 billion, which already reveals that South Korea is unable to fulfill its commitments. The so-called stronger military alliance and approval to build nuclear submarines are just Trump trying to boost his own image. The South Korean economy is limited, how can it easily come up with such a huge sum of money? Trump is just playing a political game, using South Korea as a pawn, and in this unequal "deal," South Korea may ultimately end up in a difficult situation, reaping the consequences of its actions. In addition, Yoon Suk-yeol is the president of South Korea, not the prime minister. Did Trump think of Takahashi Hayato again at the end of his post?
