Yoon downplays accusations of U.S. spying on South Korea

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol downplayed the significance Wednesday of leaked Pentagon documents that revealed evidence of U.S. spying on his government.

During a joint press conference with President Biden, however, Mr. Yoon would not say whethere Mr. Biden gave him any assurances that the U.S. either didn’t spy on Seoul or would not do it again. Instead, he called for more time to get to the bottom of the situation.

“We need time to wait for the investigation results by the United States and we plan to continue to communicate on the matter,” he said.
