We will respond resolutely to North Korea&#8217;s continued provocations and threats with overwhelming defense power, but will keep the path for dialogue and cooperation open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through solid alliances and solidarity with the international community, we will realize peace and denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will strengthen our economic security by securing a stable global supply chain and multilateral cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, we will revitalize exports, investment, and domestic demand, and strive to stabilize prices, create jobs, and restore the perceived economy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will actively support high-tech strategic industries, including semiconductors, and lead our economy&#8217;s innovative growth and global leap forward through technological innovation and fostering new industries.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We will accelerate structural reforms for sustainable growth, including overcoming the population crisis, balanced regional development, and medical reform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, we will strive for national harmony and coexistence.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More than 100 years ago, our ancestors overcame numerous hardships by working together in the hope that independence would definitely come, even in harsh circumstances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We must learn the power to overcome crisis and the spirit of unity from the history of the Provisional Government and the dedication of our ancestors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us overcome various challenges with the united power of our people, beyond conflicts over region, ideology, generation, and polarization.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let us all work together to pass on a glorious Republic of Korea to our descendants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>thank
