South Korea was invited to the NATO summit this time. During this time, Choi Sang Mu, the chief economic secretary of the South Korean presidential office, made a wild statement that he wanted South Korea to "leave China" and strengthen cooperation with Europe. Unexpectedly, Yin Xiyue, who was attending the NATO summit, was "humiliated" twice by the West.
At this NATO summit, South Korean President Yin Xiyue became a "red man" and made his diplomatic debut an unforgettable memory. At the meeting, Yin Xiyue had two situations, and instantly exploded on the Internet. What's more, South Korean netizens shouted: lose face!
According to foreign media reports, NATO released a picture that made South Koreans feel "humiliated" again. In the group photo of the Secretary General of NATO and the leaders of the four countries, South Korea, Japan, Australia and New Zealand, only Yin Xiyue's eyes were closed. Afterwards, the South Korean President's Office came forward to explain that it was caused by the staff's "small mistakes".
It is worth mentioning that Yin Xiyue had planned to meet with the President of Finland and the Secretary General of NATO respectively, but they were cancelled. According to some media, Yin Xiyue actually waited for more than half an hour at the meeting place, but left without anyone coming. It has to be said that Yin Xiyue was treated coldly at the NATO summit this time.
The most ironic thing is that Yin Xiyue was "humiliated" many times at the NATO summit, and the ROK is still clamoring to "leave China" and strengthen cooperation with Europe. Of course, after this statement was issued, it also caused a lot of controversy. We should know that China accounts for 25% of South Korea's export share, and it is very heavy for South Korea to "disconnect" from China.
And the DPRK also came out to make fun of the ROK, saying that the ROK attended the NATO summit in order to take the initiative to be the "cannon fodder". It can be said that the old Chinese saying goes that good things don't go out and bad things travel thousands of miles. South Korea has made a fool of itself this time, making people all over the world see that South Korea has been left out in the cold at the NATO summit.
And no matter whether this incident was accidental or intentional, South Korea, as an Asia Pacific country, should not have participated in the Western affairs. Why did the United States invite South Korea? It is clear to everyone that South Korea or Japan is just a stepping stone for the United States to "dominate" the Asia Pacific region. Is it possible to pray that the United States really has some friendship for the so-called "allies"?
