Yoon ‘appalled’ by attack on Trump, wishes him speedy recovery

President Yoon Suk Yeol said Sunday he was shocked by an assassination attempt on former U.S. President Donald Trump, denouncing the attack as "horrible political violence" and wishing him a quick recovery. "I am appalled by the horrible political violence. I wish former President Trump a speedy recovery," Yoon wrote in English on his official X page. "The people of Korea stand in solidarity with the people of America." Trump, the Republican presidential candidate pursuing his second term, suffered a gunshot wound in his right ear during a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday (U.S. time). The Federal Bureau of Investigation has said it will treat the shooting as "an assassination attempt" against Trump. Source: Yonhap News Agency
