President Lee Jae Myung: ”Peace is the economy”... ”We will build a peace system on the Korean Peninsula” = South Korea
On the 25th, marking the 75th anniversary of the Korean War, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said, "We are living in an era in which peace is the economy and is directly linked to the survival of our people," and "we will work to build a strong peace system on the Korean Peninsula."
"The most reliable security is to create a state where there is no need to fight, in other words, peace," President Lee wrote on Facebook that day.
Regarding the Korean War, President Lee said, "The war shook our way of life to its very core. Many people lost their families and were forced to leave their hometowns, and our peaceful lives were brutally destroyed."
"Yet we rose again, embraced hope, overcame our wounds and moved towards a better tomorrow," he wrote.
He continues, "In 1953, when the war ended, per capita income was $67.
(approximately 9,726 yen) has now risen to become one of the world's top 10 economic powers with a per capita income of over 36,000 dollars (approximately 5.23 million yen)," he said.
"For the first time since the launch of the aid initiative, Japan has transformed from an aid recipient country to an aid donor country, and is regarded as a role model for developing countries around the world."
"Building a country that will never again face war is the right way to respond to the sacrifices and dedication of so many people," he said.
"The most reliable security is to build a state where there is no need to fight, in other words, peace," he said. He continued, "The time has passed when we could rely solely on military power to protect our country. Rather than fighting and winning, we need to fight without fighting."
"What's more important is that we win," he wrote, "I pledge to firmly build a peace system on the Korean Peninsula so that the economy can stabilize and the people can live in safety and security."
