한 주간 외신 속 한반도 뉴스 Hope your workweek is off to a good start. You're watching Issues and Insiders for this Monday. I'm Min Sunhee. Today we have our panel of foreign journalists and their take on recent headlines here on the peninsula. I have Andres Sanchez Braun. Andres welcome back. I also have Matthew Weigand with us. Matthew it's good to have you here. 1) Andres, South Korea is scheduled to host to the Third Summit for Democracy from the 18th to the 20th of this month . First then, do tell us a bit about the background of this particular summit and its agenda for this year. 2) Matthew, what do you suppose is the significance of this summit especially in light of the current climate of geopolitics? 3) Andres, also starting today in South Korea is the Freedom Shield Exercise between armed forces here and their U.S. counterparts. Again, do give us some background about these regular joint drills, and do you believe they well serve their purpose? 4) Matthew, speaking about military collaboration. Seoul's Defense Minister Shin Won-shik recently claimed that North Korean factories are “operating at full capacity“ to provide Russia with weapons. What else did he share, and how worried do you suppose should the international community be? 5) Andres, plans are reportedly underway among a number of European countries to reopen their embassies in Pyongyang following pandemic-related closures in 2020. What are the broader implications of these diplomatic developments? 6) Matthew, on a lighter note. It has been claimed that North Korea's Kim Jong-un is keeping his eldest son out of the public eye because of his physical appearance. How credible is this claim? 7) Andres, staying with children, but back here in South Korea. There was quite a bit of foreign media coverage about South Korea's further decline in fertility last year. What more can you tell us? 8) Matthew, also in local news. Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg was in Seoul late last week, and I believe President Yoon Suk Yeol pledged tangible support for active collaboration between Korean companies and Meta. What are the prospects of such cooperation ? 9) Andres, what is the latest regarding the standoff between the government and doctors in training here? All right. #SouthKorea #UnitedStates #Freedom_Shield #President #YoonSukyeol #Meta #CEO #MarkZuckerberg #대한민국 #미국 #자유의_방패 #한미_연합_훈련 #대통령 #윤석열 #마크저커버그 #Arirang_News #아리랑뉴스 📣 Facebook : 📣 Twitter : 📣 Homepage : 2024-03-04, 14:30 (KST)
