Biden’s first official press conference, a sensational’North Korea message’ in his notebook

US President Joe Biden held his first official press conference after taking office at the White House on the 25th. At the conference that day, the notebook brought by President Biden became a hot topic. In the notebook captured by the camera, a memo about North Korea was written in clear letters.

On that day, when a question about North Korea’s ballistic missile launch came out, President Biden bowed a little and showed him reading the prepared phrase.

The answer was in the same way as the memo summarized in the notebook. In the handbook, it is written in handwriting,’If you choose to violate UN Resolution 1718, increase tensions, respond accordingly, and prepare for some form of diplomacy.’ President Biden said at a press conference that North Korea’s ballistic missile launch was a violation of UN Security Council Resolution 1718 and that the United States is in consultation with allies and partners. He also mentioned that if North Korea chooses to increase tensions, it will respond accordingly, but it is also prepared for some form of diplomacy subject to the final outcome of denuclearization.

It is interpreted as trying to deliver an orderly message in a situation where attention is focused on the first reaction of the new US president to North Korea’s ballistic missile launch.

On this day, President Biden often seemed to read prepared answers to various pending issues in addition to North Korea-related questions. Conservative media pointed out that this is a’cheating paper’.

Former President Donald Trump criticized President Biden’s first official press conference, saying, “It was like softball,” saying that the media only asked soft and easy questions.

At the first official press conference on this day, 25 reporters attended, and 10 asked questions in 62 minutes.
