Ruling party: ”President Yoon visits three Central Asian countries, reaffirms South Korea's status as a central global nation”

On the 16th, the People Power Party evaluated President Yoon Seok-yeol's visit to three Central Asian countries, saying that it "reaffirmed South Korea's international status as a global central nation."
Yoon Hee-seok, a spokesman for the People's Power, said in a statement on the same day, "Following the Pacific Island Nations Summit, the Korea-Africa Summit, and Middle East diplomacy, we are looking forward to holding new groups with various countries.
"We are seeing the successful completion of our mission of establishing a global partnership," Yoon said.
"We have been able to strengthen relationships of trust with the three resource-rich Central Asian countries, while also achieving results in forming a platform that can proactively respond to changes in the global supply chain."
He also said, "In addition, we were able to export the 'KTX' train, which was made using Korea's own technology, to Uzbekistan for the first time," and added, "Through this visit, we have strengthened the cooperative relationship that Korea has built with Central Asia."
"The Yoon Seok-yeol government has expanded the scope of the ROK-Central Asia Summit, which has been limited to the Asia-Pacific region until now, to include the ROK-Central Asia Summit next year," Yoon added.
"Just as we have aimed to build a global network by expanding our diplomatic horizons, we will do our utmost to support the power of the people and work to ensure that the people can experience the results," he said.
Park Jun-tae, a floor spokesman for the People's Power Party, also commented on the same day, "The Democratic Party of Korea has been hurling various slanders at me, calling my visit an 'empty-handed diplomacy' before I can even return to the country."
"We did not expect any concrete cooperation, but we are deeply disappointed that presidential diplomacy, which involves national interests, is being treated like a political struggle."
"Overseas visits and empty-handed diplomacy are not the words to use in situations like this," he said.
Such words are suitable for "Taj Mahal tourism." "Inviting yourself to fulfill your bucket list and flying a private jet without the president is a trip abroad," he said of Kim Jung-sook's visit to India.
Park, the floor spokesman, said, "The Democratic Party's two-sided attitude of being silent about the Taj Mahal tourism project, in which the people's hard-earned tax money was used in the air, while criticizing the results of summit diplomacy, is a case of the people being judged.
It will come back like a boomerang," he said loudly.
