In an interview with TBS Radio's 'Kim Eo-jun's News Factory' on the morning of the same day, Jeong said, "It was a meaningful summit that produced many achievements. It opened a new chapter in the Korea-US alliance."


He emphasized, "With the abolition of missile guidelines, we have regained missile sovereignty, and we can now open the space age on our own." He added, "Since we agreed to address the nuclear issue based on the achievements in South-North-US relations pursued during the Trump administration, this is also a significant achievement."



He also cited cooperation on vaccines and nuclear power as achievements. He said, "If the US and we cooperate, there is a high possibility of overseas exports being realized," and added, "Economic cooperation will actually serve as an adhesive that strengthens the alliance between Korea and the US."
