Lee cites European protests as growth lesson
President Lee Jae Myung said Tuesday that South Korea should learn from recent large-scale protests in European countries, including France, over high living costs and inequality, citing low growth as a potential reason for the unrest and stressing the importance of ensuring sustained growth at home. Speaking at a Cabinet meeting at Cheong Wa Dae, Lee said Korea should use Europe's prolonged low growth as a lesson, according to Yonhap and KBS World. The remarks come as French President Emmanuel Macron promised 'strong measures' to assuage weeks of street protests over a broad set of grievances, as reported by the Korea Times. Korean media coverage focuses on the policy implications, with the Chosun Ilbo highlighting Lee's call to treat Europe's long-term low growth as a cautionary tale.
