Acting President Han Duck-soo has called his commitment to navigating the nation through tough tariff talks with the Trump administration his “final mission”
Chairing a Cabinet meeting earlier on this Monday Han emphasized turning the crisis into an opportunity by leveraging his extensive trade experience to protect national interests and enhance Korea’s global competitiveness.
These remarks come amid much speculation about a potential bid by Han for the presidential election on June third.
He has neither confirmed nor denied his intention to run.
He has instead called on the parliament for prompt action on pending bills aimed at stabilizing livelihoods and spurring economic growth.
In this regard he stressed the need to swiftly pass the Semiconductor Special Act as well as measures to help protect small businesses affected by delayed payments.
