Delayed acquisition process
Another foreign antitrust agency has decided to suspend the approval of Korean Air's acquisition of Asiana Airlines. The U.S. Department of Justice reportedly said Tuesday it would watch more of Korean Air's remedies to address the regulator's concerns over the planned acquisition before deciding whether to approve it. A day earlier, Britain's Competition and Markets Authorit...

China should do more
President Yoon Suk-yeol had a summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the G-20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia, Tuesday. The meeting was the first face-to-face event since Yoon took office in May. It was also the first of its kind since December 2019 when Yoon's predecessor Moon Jae-in met Xi. It was symbolic, but significant in that it came amid a growing need...

Naming Itaewon victims
Two online media outlets created a stir Monday by publishing the names of 155 of the victims of the Itaewon crowd crush without the consent of their families. This was the first time that an almost complete list of the Itaewon disaster, which has claimed 158 lives as of Tuesday, has been disclosed.

Differences still remain
U.S. President Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping sought to “manage differences” on contentious issues during their landmark in-person meeting on the sidelines of the G-20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, Monday. Fortunately, they toned down the Cold War rhetoric to prevent already-tense U.S.-China relations from deteriorating further.

Chaotic crypto market
Cryptocurrency markets are fluctuating wildly, following the bankruptcy filing by FTX, the world's third-largest crypto exchange. Now, Crypto.com, which is in the top 10, is also faltering. Cryptocurrency transactions have no borders. Although these exchanges are based overseas, domestic investors who traded on FTX risk losing all their deposits. Investors who purchased coins...

Strengthened deterrence
The leaders of South Korea, the United States and Japan have agreed to strengthen security cooperation to deter North Korea's missile and nuclear threats. In a trilateral summit held in Phnom Penh on Sunday, they also vowed to deliver a “strong and resolute” response if North Korea conducts its seventh nuclear test.

Artillery shell exports to US
The Ministry of National Defense has confirmed that South Korea was negotiating with the United States to export 155-millimeter artillery shells to the U.S. to shore up diminishing inventories. In a statement Friday, the defense ministry said the negotiations to export ammunition are under the premise that the U.S. is the end user.

Call for China's active role
U.S. President Joe Biden is expected to ask his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping to play an active role in restraining North Korea's nuclear ambitions. How the Chinese leader will react to the U.S. move is drawing keen attention.

Stop resorting to nepotism
Politicians who worked at President Yoon Suk-yeol's campaign headquarters are snatching up vacant CEO posts at one state enterprise after another. It is especially problematic that people who lack expertise are being appointed as the heads of energy companies running deficits amid soaring fuel prices.

Infringing on freedom of speech
The presidential office is taking flak for having banned MBC journalists from accompanying President Yoon Suk-yeol on his visit to Southeast Asia. The office noted it made the decision since the public broadcaster repeatedly delivered “distorted and biased” coverage on foreign affairs-related issues.
