Lee urges Korea to learn from European protests
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 emphasized that the protests' background is prolonged low growth and that Korea should use Europe's situation as a lesson to achieve sustainable growth, narrow income, asset, and employment gaps, expand investment in advanced industries, and boost domestic demand so people feel improvements in their livelihoods. Yonhap reports Lee made these remarks on Oct. 27, and KBS World notes he said Korea should learn from the protests to sustain growth.
