The White House congratulated South Korea on a fair election but voiced concern over potential Chinese influence as liberal candidate Lee Jae-myung assumes the presidency.
While recognizing South Korea's presidential election as free and fair, the White House raised concerns about China's interference in democratic systems worldwide. Lee Jae-myung's victory has triggered mixed reactions among right-wing U.S. figures, some of whom accuse him of being too soft on China.
Despite these claims, top U.S. officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, reaffirmed the strength of the U.S.-South Korea alliance. However, experts suggest Lee's moderate stance on China and Taiwan could cause friction with Washington, especially under scrutiny from Trump-aligned voices skeptical of his foreign policy direction.
