Lee Jae-myeong, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, said on the 3rd that the President’s Office hinted at a veto of the Special Prosecutor’s Office Act, saying, “I believe that President Yoon Seok-yeol and the ruling party will not exercise their veto.”
At the Supreme Committee meeting held at the National Assembly on this day, Representative Lee mentioned President Yoon and the ruling party’s past remarks that “refusing special prosecutors is because they have committed a crime,” and then said, “I believe they will not refuse it because they are probably not criminals.” .
The day before, Presidential Chief of Staff Jeong Jin-seok held a briefing after the Special Prosecutor Chae Sang-byeong Act passed the plenary session of the National Assembly led by the opposition party and criticized, “The Democratic Party’s push for a special investigation is bad politics that seeks to exploit the unfortunate death of Corporal Chae for political purposes.”
Regarding the Itaewon disaster special law that passed the plenary session of the National Assembly the day before, Representative Lee said, “It is fortunate that we were able to pass it with agreement between the ruling and opposition parties at the end of the 21st National Assembly,” and added, “We will investigate the truth about this tragic incident and clarify responsibility to prevent the same accident from happening.” “Taking measures to prevent recurrence is the minimum responsibility of the state to protect the lives and safety of its citizens,” he pointed out.
He continued, “I believe that neglecting the Itaewon disaster ultimately led to the Osong disaster,” and added, “The Osong disaster issue is also a truly serious issue that cannot be ignored. He also emphasized, “Because there are so many big things, they are hidden, but we must not forget them.”
Regarding the government and the ruling party’s concerns about rising prices related to the livelihood recovery support fund, which was his general election pledge, Representative Lee said, “It is true if the price increase occurred on the demand side, but the current problem is a supply side problem,” and “I am worried about prices, so I am worried about the economy.” “It is self-contradiction not to implement policies that help recovery,” he said, urging the government and the ruling party again to accept subsidies for people’s livelihood recovery.
Meanwhile, regarding floor leader Hong Ik-pyo, who ends his term on this day, he said, “I think he performed his role well during the most difficult times and achieved great results. “Even in the unfortunate situation where dialogue between the ruling and opposition parties disappeared, he was a capable representative who achieved some of what the people wanted through constant dialogue and persuasion,” he praised.
He also said, “I wish we could continue, but I feel very regretful,” and after the meeting ended, he handed a bouquet of flowers to floor leader Hong.
