Harris accidentally commends alliance with ‘Republic of North Korea’ during DMZ visit

Vice President Kamala Harris accidentally commended the country’s strong alliance with the “Republic of North Korea” during a speech at the Demilitarized Zone located on the Korean Peninsula, likely meaning to refer to the “Republic of Korea,” which is South Korea’s name.

The slip-up came during the vice president’s first visit to the DMZ on Thursday, where Harris vowed U.S. support for South Korea against the North Korean government. The DMZ acts as a buffer zone between the two countries. Harris's visit came just one day after North Korea fired a third ballistic missile into the sea, following two other missile firings that occurred while she was visiting Japan.

"I cannot state enough that the commitment of the United States to the defense of the Republic of Korea is iron-clad and that we will do everything in our power to ensure that it has meaning in every way that the words suggest," Harris said, according to Fox News. “In the North, we see a brutal dictatorship, rampant human rights violations, and an unlawful weapons program that threatens peace and stability.”

Harris denounced North Korea’s government and its “illicit weapons program” during a speech on Wednesday at the U.S. Fleet Activities in Yokosuka. Harris’s stop at the DMZ was the final stop of her diplomatic trip to Asia.

efore visiting the DMZ, Harris met with South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol to discuss the countries' economic and technological alliances. During that meeting, the two world leaders also condemned North Korea for its threats of nuclear tests.

Shortly after her speech, Harris departed from Osan Air Base to head to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.

Wow, of all the things to get wrong that one’s a doozie. It shows she’s just a script reader like Biden. These two absolutely are NOT the ones running this regime. They’re just a front and any media worth a cup of warm spit could see that.

Was it an accident?

Freudian slip is probably more like it.

“When does she visit The Republic of Wakanda?”

Right after she gets back from Freedonia.

I don’t see it in this quote.

I believe it, I just don’t see this article reporting the quote.

Watch the video. I agree the article is contradictory but the video proves she said "Republic of North Korea".

Yeah. When a democrat makes a mistake it’s a “gaffe” “slip-up” “faux pas.” When a Republican makes a mistake, we never hear the end of it. Quayle. Potato(e).

In a sign of the Apocalypse, Biden is recognizing Dead People and Kamala Harris can’t tell the difference between North and South Korea while standing at the DMZ.
