White House congratulates Moon Jae-in on S Korea vote win

The White House today congratulated Moon Jae-in on his landslide victory in South Korea's president election, a vote which could complicate President Donald Trump's hardline stance on North Korea.

"We look forward to working with President-elect Moon to continue to strengthen the alliance between the United States and the Republic of Korea," White House press secretary Sean Spicer said in a statement.
