[Full Text] Scott Morrison, Australian Prime Minister, 70th Anniversary Video Message of the Korean War
[Asia Economy Reporter Ryu Jeong-min] I am pleased to be able to honor the veterans of the 6.25 War with you. More than 17,000 Australian soldiers participated in the 6.25 War, and among them, 340 never returned to their homeland. On this meaningful day, I would like to once again affirm that Australia unwaveringly supports the peace and stability of the Republic of Korea.
Both countries, sharing similar positions, believe that as liberal democracies, everyone should be guaranteed the right to be free from oppression. Both nations have upheld the values of a market economy and free trade, witnessing how the coexistence of freedom and prosperity brings change to their countries. South Korea and Australia have built a strong alliance and partnership based on shared values.
