The interview, which was held to mark the half-point of his term in office, was published in the international and U.S. editions of Newsweek under the subheading of "Domestic Truths," "President Yoon's biggest problem is not North Korea."President
Yoon described the four major reforms as being in the final stages of what he would not be able to do if he did not do it now, and said he could create a solid framework and finish it in the next administration even if it was not completed within his term in office.
Regarding North Korea's dispatch of troops to Russia, he evaluated that applying the experience of modern warfare that North Korea acquires in the war in Ukraine to more than 1 million North Korean troops would pose a great risk to South Korea's security.President Yun
called it very irrational if North Korea decides to launch a nuclear attack on South Korea, and warned that if so, an immediate nuclear strike would occur under the South Korea-U.S. nuclear-based security alliance.
The presidential office said it was encouraging that President Yoon was on the cover story of Newsweek in the week when candidate Donald Trump became president-elect.
