[앵커]

As one of US President Joe Biden’s attempts to expand communication with the public, he initiated a weekly dialogue with the people in direct communication with the people.

The White House has released about two-and-a-half minutes of video of President Biden talking to a woman who lost her job due to the corona crisis on several social media, including Twitter.

In the video released this time, President Biden sat in the office of the White House and called a woman named Michelle, California.

“Hello” “Michele?” “Hi Mr. President”

On the phone, Michelle shared the pain of losing her job, saying she was fired from her job in July of last year.

[미셸 볼커트 / 캘리포니아 주민 : (작년) 7월에 정리해고를 당했는데 일자리를 구하기가 너무 힘들어서 대통령에게 편지를 썼습니다.]

President Biden stressed the importance of the job, saying, “Working is part of you.”

[조 바이든 / 미국 대통령 : 일을 한다는 것은 당신의 일부입니다. 나의 아버지도 직업은 월급 이상의 것이라고 말씀하셨습니다. 그건 당신의 존엄성, 존경, 지역 사회에서 당신의 위치에 관한 것’입니다.]

“We are working on an emergency relief plan for those in need,” he said. “The Democrats are in the process of dealing with a $1.9 trillion budget.”

He added that the government is also promoting large-scale vaccinations.

In response, Michelle said, “My parents also scheduled vaccinations.”

The woman had previously written a letter to President Biden to talk about her hardships and job search, the AFP news agency said.

The White House said President Biden plans to communicate regularly with the public on the call.

In the video released this time, the call with Michelle was also introduced as a’weekly conversation’.
