美대선: 트럼프,바이든... 두 후보간 정책 비교

We're now less than a week away from the U.S. presidential election day.
But, this year's race isn't just about a vote for a candidate, but for their standpoints on key issues facing the United States.
Arirang News' election coverage continues today: our Choi Won-jong explains where the two candidates stand on key areas including COVID-19, climate change, and North Korea.
Millions of American voters are casting their ballots based on the two candidates' policies on key issues. But what kind of policies are they standing for?
President Trump decided to end the U.S. role as the biggest funder for the World Health Organization, accusing the WHO of being under China's control.
However, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would like to reverse the decision to defund and withdraw from the WHO, and wants to keep international engagement during the pandemic.
Trump explained his stances at a campaign rally in Arizona this week.
"Our country will be stronger than ever before. Biden is the candidate of layoffs, lockdowns, and misery. I am the candidate of jobs, vaccines, and prosperity."
The two candidates will also hold a rally on Thursday, local time in Florida, where their approaches to the pandemic are on full display.
Trump will stage an outdoor rally with large crowds, but Biden will hold a drive-in rally where supporters remain in their cars.
Trump wants to push each state to reopen as quickly as possible, despite COVID-19 cases continuing to spike.
However, Biden opposes this idea, saying Trump has failed to protect people because he is more concerned about the economy.
Biden cautioned against reopening businesses while there is not enough virus testing.
Back in 2018 and 2019, President Trump met with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un three times, making efforts to have Kim give up his nuclear weapons program.
During the final presidential debate, Trump even said he has a good relationship with Kim and there has been no war during his term.
Biden criticized Trump for giving the regime too much leverage, and said he will meet with Kim only if he pledges to give up his nuclear capacity.
With tensions between U.S. and China on the rise, President Trump will be likely to maintain tariffs on China, hoping to bring more jobs back to the U.S.
On the other side, Biden would use a multilateral approach to China and improve relations with Beijing.
In 2017, President Trump decided to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris Agreement, saying it was too costly.
He also reversed climate protections introduced during the Obama administration and eased air and water pollution penalties against companies during the pandemic.
Biden, however, said he would re-enter the Paris Climate Agreement and would have the U.S. take a lead role against climate change.
