美대선: 트럼프,바이든... 두 후보간 정책 비교<br /><br />We're now less than a week away from the U.S. presidential election day.<br />But, this year's race isn't just about a vote for a candidate, but for their standpoints on key issues facing the United States.<br />Arirang News' election coverage continues today: our Choi Won-jong explains where the two candidates stand on key areas including COVID-19, climate change, and North Korea.<br />Millions of American voters are casting their ballots based on the two candidates' policies on key issues. But what kind of policies are they standing for?<br />President Trump decided to end the U.S. role as the biggest funder for the World Health Organization, accusing the WHO of being under China's control.<br />However, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would like to reverse the decision to defund and withdraw from the WHO, and wants to keep international engagement during the pandemic.<br />Trump explained his stances at a campaign rally in Arizona this week.<br />"Our country will be stronger than ever before. Biden is the candidate of layoffs, lockdowns, and misery. I am the candidate of jobs, vaccines, and prosperity."<br />The two candidates will also hold a rally on Thursday, local time in Florida, where their approaches to the pandemic are on full display.<br />Trump will stage an outdoor rally with large crowds, but Biden will hold a drive-in rally where supporters remain in their cars.<br />Trump wants to push each state to reopen as quickly as possible, despite COVID-19 cases continuing to spike.<br />However, Biden opposes this idea, saying Trump has failed to protect people because he is more concerned about the economy.<br />Biden cautioned against reopening businesses while there is not enough virus testing.<br />Back in 2018 and 2019, President Trump met with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un three times, making efforts to have Kim give up his nuclear weapons program.<br />During the final presidential debate, Trump even said he has a good relationship with Kim and there has been no war during his term.<br />Biden criticized Trump for giving the regime too much leverage, and said he will meet with Kim only if he pledges to give up his nuclear capacity.<br />With tensions between U.S. and China on the rise, President Trump will be likely to maintain tariffs on China, hoping to bring more jobs back to the U.S.<br />On the other side, Biden would use a multilateral approach to China and improve relations with Beijing. <br />In 2017, President Trump decided to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Agreement, saying it was too costly. <br />He also reversed climate protections introduced during the Obama administration and eased air and water pollution penalties against companies during the pandemic.<br />Biden, however, said he would re-enter the Paris Climate Agreement and would have the U.S. take a lead role against climate change.<br />Choi Won-jong, Arirang News.<br />
