The Democrat Party of South Korea, the new Ruling Party, has signaled its move away from the U.S. once again with an effort to use “human rights” allegations to fuel the American left resistance to ICE deportations. The country is alleging Trump “may have” violated the rights of its citizens after raiding a Hyundai plant and detaining more than 300 South Korean illegal aliens.
A spokesperson for South Korean President Lee Jae Myung stated, “I understand that the government is conducting a more thorough review with the companies to determine whether any human rights violations occurred. The foreign ministry is looking at whether our demands were properly addressed, and the companies are also conducting their own reviews, to check whether any measures were insufficient on either the Korean side or U.S. side.”

South Korea said on Monday it is reviewing possible human rights abuses that may have taken place while its citizens were detained by the United States following a large-scale immigration raid at a Hyundai plant in Georgia earlier this month.
Seoul’s announcement of the investigation comes days after the Trump administration agreed to let more than 300 detained South Korean nationals return to their home country…
Close ties between the two allies have been strained ever since immigration officers raided the electric vehicle manufacturing facility on Sept. 4 and detained at least 316 Koreans who either lived and worked in the U.S. illegally or overstayed their visas. In total, 475 people were apprehended.
