South Korea: A pushover no more

President Yoon Suk Yeol made headlines recently for his remarks regarding the situations of Ukraine and Taiwan in an interview with Reuters that led to his upbraiding by the governments of Russia and China as well as the Democratic Party of Korea's (DPK) leader, Lee Jae-myung. Distortions of the president's remarks aside, it seemed a fairly deft bit of diplomacy from the world's tenth largest economy, and contrary to some views, does not seem to further damage inter-Korean relations.
