Seoul reproduces Melania's exact words with the attention of an ally whose security depends on American stability
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
Seoul covers Melania's statement with interest exceeding mere American news monitoring. The Korea Times reproduces the key quote — 'The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today' — with the revealing detail that the article spells 'PresIdent' (capital I), likely a sign of an article written or edited quickly to keep pace with the news flow. South Korea, a major US ally with 28,500 American troops stationed on its soil, follows Washington political turbulence with the anxiety of a country whose security depends on American leadership stability.
