◆ Choi Soo-young: Kang Hye-kyung, an aide to former lawmaker Kim Young-sun and accounting manager of the People's Power, attended as a witness to the National Assembly and has now released the list of 27 people. Representative Cho is also a politician based in South Gyeongsang Province, so the list of 27 people has come out, so the political community is in a state of turmoil. Senator Cho, do you think the 27-member list is such a claim to be considered a list like this?

★ Cho Hae-jin: I think they explained it like that. I think he explained that's not it. When I first saw it, I thought why this became news, but it means that they are connected by public opinion polls. I don't think it's 100% that they requested a poll from the Future Korea Research Institute, so some people commissioned the survey, and some people didn't request it, but they just did it because they were curious about the situation, but they couldn't explain it because there was no explanation, and it gave the impression that it was a problematic poll because there was some illegal poll or there was a problem with the manipulation of the poll. So, lawyer Noh Young-hee and the parties explained later on. It's not like that, I said something, but I just made a deal. That's all. Public opinion is just sensitively focused on one side right now, so you have to be careful about that, and opposition lawmakers are telling you to release the list. You shouldn't do that because it's as if all the people listed in the related polls are criminals.

◇ Lee Ik-seon: The essence of Kim's opposition party is the first lady's intervention in the nomination, but it is pointed out that the essence is changing as the so-called list of pollack bacteria is released.

☆ Kim Byung-joo: Yes, with the list of pollack bacteria coming out and various things coming out, isn't public anger exploding against First Lady Kim Gun-hee and President Kim Yoon Suk Yeol? In particular, the polls were rigged. I think this is a big problem to undermine democracy. And what's the intervention of the nomination? There are also talks about shamanism. So, President Yoon Suk Yeol had some suspicions when he came out of the three princes when he was a candidate, but later, there was a perforation and a monk, and this time, Myung Tae-kyun had a spiritual conversation with First Lady Kim Geon-hee. In fact, our people gave votes to President Yoon Suk Yeol, not to Kim Gun-hee or a shaman, but to control a shaman's words, a shaman's country, can be a big problem. 2,500 years ago, the Sonja Defense Act also said, "Don't rely on these things and judge them with accurate information." What era are we in now, and should we hear these stories from the people?

◆ Choi Soo-young: Since you're talking about the grandchild military method, let's go to our security situation. Since you are an expert now, you were a former deputy commander of the ROK-US Combined Forces Command, so North Korea has now sent a large number of troops to Russia. As a deputy commander of the ROK-US Combined Forces Command, how is the situation now?

☆ Kim Byung-joo: I think it's quite a security crisis right now. It's a crisis not only on the Korean Peninsula, but also in Northeast Asia. In fact, I warned North Korea when it formed an alliance with Russia. This is heading for quite a crisis. North Korea also strengthened its alliance by providing weapons of destruction to Russia, and now some North Korean troops have gone to Russia. It is difficult to see it as a large-scale force yet, and such a situation is quite putting the Korean Peninsula into a crisis. Because if that happens, Russia and North Korea become blood allies. If that happens, North Korea will solve almost everything it can. Not only do they receive financial support for their food, but they can also receive technologies such as military technology ICBM and military satellites. What's worse is that if a war breaks out, Russia will give an excuse for automatic intervention.

◆ Choi Soo-young: It's called a wire. Is that possible?

☆ Kim Byung-joo: That's possible. Because we've already signed an alliance treaty. There are provisions such as "help each other if we go to war," so this is a global crisis as well as the Korean Peninsula. In fact, I think the primary reason why Russia and North Korea have deteriorated like this is because the interests of Russia and North Korea are aligned, and the second is because of the foreign policy of the Yoon Suk Yeol regime. Last year, the president of Yoon Suk Yeol went to Ukraine and suddenly went to war in July. There is also a suspicion that Russia has turned into an adversary by talking about solidarity and fighting together in the spirit of life and death, and that it has already provided about 500,000 rounds of 155mm shells through the United States last year. I think these things were another trigger.

◇ Lee Ik-seon: But the U.S. has not officially confirmed the dispatch of troops to North Korea, so why doesn't the U.S. make an official statement?

☆ Kim Byung-joo: The United States and NATO have not confirmed their official position. If what the Korean National Intelligence Service said is true, it's a crisis. That's why it seems that this needs to be checked more. In fact, the National Intelligence Service suddenly released a detailed report last Friday evening. It's very unusual. Yes, this is a crisis, but there are also suspicions that this is done by inflating it. Because now, Yoon Suk Yeol's presidential approval rating has dropped, especially on Friday last week, when suspicions about First Lady Kim Gun-hee were just exploding. So there's also a suspicion that the issue is to say this in a more exaggerated way to cover the issue. Nevertheless, it is very dangerous that North Korea has started sending troops to Russia. Also, I think the form of sending this time is not a form of dispatch, but a form of mercenary. When it comes to dispatch troops, they wear their own military uniforms and take their own weapons with them and go to the organizational system. But now, I don't know how the battle will be organized in the future, wearing Russian uniforms. Because we have to watch it, I think this is a big crisis on the Korean Peninsula and can bring a crisis in Northeast Asia anyway.

◆ Choi Soo-young: Let me ask you a little more briefly. You said earlier that we would provide 155mm shells to Ukraine in a roundabout way. Then, do you think there is a possibility of applying directly without detouring?

☆ Kim Byung-joo: That's the point of greatest concern. Former Minister Shin Won-sik has already announced to the media that it is right to provide direct support personally, and this time, the Security Office will respond step by step. He said he would do it with everything open, suggesting that he would directly provide offensive weapons to Ukraine. This is putting our country in crisis.

◆ So you shouldn't do it?

☆ Kim Byung-joo: No way. Of course, even in the 21st generation, I proposed a law that requires the consent of the National Assembly when sending weapons of destruction to warring countries, and it was abolished, so I put it back up in the 21st generation. This is a matter of great importance to security.

◇ Profit line: Okay. We've even looked at security issues. Let's stop here. Kim Byung-joo, a supreme council member of the Democratic Party of Korea, and Cho Hae-jin, a member of the National Power Party.

☆ Kim Byung-joo, Cho Hae-jin: Thank you.
