From the Korea Times:
U.S. President George W. Bush admitted Tuesday local time that he found it unbelievable to see a U.S. military base at the center of Seoul.
Bush made the candid comment in his talk with visiting South Korean Foreign Affairs-Trade Minister Ban Ki-moon during the minister’s courtesy visit to the White House, while discussing the recent Seoul-Washington agreement on the Yongsan Garrison relocation, according to Kim Sook, Ban’s aide.
Bush continued to say that he agreed with President Roh Moo-hyun that the U.S. base is preventing proper use of valuable real estate in Seoul, and that it would be better to move the base.
