제목: RE: [EXTERNAL] Media inquiry from JTBC in Seoul
Dear Ms Kim,
Thank you for your note.
To clarify, I did not say that I knew former President Yoon was being treated unfairly. I said that I believed the perception that he is being persecuted or has received an unreasonably harsh sentence would be received very badly in the US and with President Trump. I stressed that President Trump believes he was persecuted as a former president and that I believed he would not be pleased if he thought former President Yoon had been persecuted.
My hope is that my comments were unnecessary and President Yoon will get a fair trial and reasonable sentence. However, reports that the former president is being mistreated during his current confinement and media reports that he could face the death penalty or life in prison are extremely concerning.
Please note that my comments to the National Assembly delegation were my own. I do not work for the Trump and administration and do not speak for it. I hope this is helpful.
If this comes out, they're making inappropriate comments about our internal affairs
I'd have to mention the content,
There was no mention of anything.
I don't know how great that greeting is,
It is extremely inappropriate for an American to comment on what is going on in Korea.
And if you look at the contents of that email,
I don't want to take responsibility, I want to keep what I want to say in the first place,
It has the same attitude that some attention-seekers have.
The self-proclaimed best media outlet in Korea
To describe this person's comments in a more far-right manner
I think it's a denial of its existence.
That's why the Chosun Ilbo already thinks it's not the media.
