South Korean President Park Geun-hye is scheduled to address Congress on May 8, House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) announced in a written statement Tuesday:
“It will be my honor to welcome President Park to the United States Capitol next month. Given the North Korean regime’s recent provocative actions, President Park’s address to Congress will serve as a vital and timely reminder that Americans and South Koreans will continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder to preserve our hopes for peace and freedom.”
