前联合国秘书长潘基文不会竞选韩国总统

发布时间：2017-02-04 编辑：查字典英语网小编

Former United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Wednesday he will not run for president of South Korea.

Ban had generated interest as a top candidate to succeed Park Geun-hye, who was impeached in December over a corruption scandal, but his support in opinion polls has been falling.

He told reporters Wednesday he was disappointed by the country's political establishment. "I have decided to give up the pure intention of trying to lead political change and accomplish national reconciliation," he said.

Ban served for two years as South Korea's foreign minister before leading the U.N. for a decade.

A court is considering Park's impeachment, and if it upholds the decision, then a presidential election for her replacement would come two months later.

联合国前秘书长潘基文周三表示，他不会竞选韩国总统。

自去年12月韩国总统朴槿惠因腐败丑闻遭议会弹劾后，潘基文已经成为人们感兴趣的首选总统候选人，但他在民意调查中的支持率一直在下降。

潘基文星期三对记者说，他对韩国的政治机构感到失望。他说，“我已经决定放弃试图领导政治变革和实现民族和解的单纯想法。”

潘基文在担任10年联合国秘书长之前，曾任两年韩国外交部长。

目前朴槿惠的弹劾案正在法庭审阅，如果弹劾决定不变的话，两个月后将举行替任总统的选举。
