Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, is speaking at the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul on the 3rd. 2024.5.3/News 1

On the 3rd, Lee Jun-seok, leader of the New Reform Party, responded to the President’s office’s suggestion to exercise the right to request reconsideration (veto) on the ‘Special Prosecution Act on Suspicion of External Pressure in the Death of Corporal Chae’ (Special Prosecution Act on Suspicion of External Pressure in the Death of Corporal Chae), which the opposition parties, including the Democratic Party of Korea, single-handedly pushed through the previous day, saying, “The President “You are self-denying,” he said, demanding that he give up his right to veto.

Representative Lee said this at the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly this morning, saying, “Former President Park Geun-hye dismissed the possibility of vetoing the Choi Soon-sil Special Counsel Act in the past, and through this, Special Prosecutor Yoon Seok-yeol, head of the investigation team, was able to conduct an investigation without sanctuary.”

He continued, “If former President Park Geun-hye had used her veto to block the special prosecution, there would have been no investigation team leader Yoon Seok-yeol, and the current President Yoon Seok-yeol would not have been born.”

At the same time, he raised his voice, saying, “The president who is blocking the investigation into his wife’s family and professing his veto on investigations that could affect the President’s Office is self-denying.”

Representative Lee said, “If we can understand the feelings of the parents of corporal soldiers who are seeing their son’s name repeatedly called out in politics due to the president’s stubbornness, the three words ‘right to veto’ will not result in prolonging the situation again and hurting the parents’ feelings. “Please don’t let it happen,” he urged.

In addition, he said to the People Power Party lawmakers, “The only way to be recorded as a member of the 21st National Assembly who has conviction and correct legislative activities against Eom Seok-dae and his group is to show it through action.” “Please cancel the decision,” he requested.

In addition, Representative Lee asked the Korean government to “show active action” in response to the Japanese government’s request for Naver to sell its stake in the Japanese national messenger line (LINE).

Representative Lee said, “The Ministry of Science and ICT’s position that it is a separate issue from diplomacy with Japan only amplifies the anxiety of the younger generation of IT developers,” and added, “It is difficult to see it as a separate issue from diplomacy.” He said, “I ask the government to declare maximum diplomatic efforts in the direction of protecting our companies so that the other party does not overturn the glass after filling half the glass first.”
