“(CNN)US President Donald Trump addressed the South Korean parliament in Seoul Wednesday, with a fiery speech that was full of criticism of the country's northern neighbor and particularly its leader Kim Jong Un.
'The more successful South Korea becomes, the more decisively you discredit the dark fantasy at the heart of the Kim regime'
One of the key points of Trump's speech was the contrast between North and South Korea.
"The very existence of a thriving South Korean republic threatens the very survival of the North Korean dictatorship," he said. "This city and this assembly are living proof that a free and independent Korea not only can, but does stand strong, sovereign and proud among the nations of the world.”
"In this republic, the people have done what no dictator ever could," Trump added. "You took -- with the help of the United States -- responsibility for yourself and ownership of your future. You had a dream, a Korean dream, and you built that dream into a great reality.
However, while South Korea today outstrips its northern neighbor on practically every measure, in the decades after the Korean War, it was Pyongyang, not Seoul, which could boast a greater quality of life and economic success.
Both countries were also ruled by dictatorial strongmen until the late 1980s, when South Korea finally transitioned to a fully civilian, democratic government. Since then, the country's fortunes have far surpassed North Korea’s.”
