South Korea’s President Lee Jae Myung urges U.S. President Donald Trump to help South Korea make peace with North Korea, according to an office statement. The request comes after Trump is seen as having resolved conflicts in the Middle East, and Lee asks for similar U.S. support regarding negotiations with Pyongyang. The statement notes that the United States and Iran are preparing to sign a memorandum of understanding on Friday to end their war. It also references speculation that, after the Iran development, the Trump administration may shift attention to North Korea. The statement further points to Trump’s actions following the Iran announcement, including posting a social media photograph that includes him with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. The report frames Lee’s appeal as a continuation of efforts toward easing tensions and building peace on the Korean Peninsula, while linking the timing to potential changes in U.S. priorities after the U.S.-Iran agreement.
