Passive diplomatic activities...Criticizing the Yoon Suk Yeol administration's diplomatic mistakes

"Chances are high for President Xi Jinping to visit Korea on the occasion of APEC in Gyeongju next year

Opposition lawmakers continued to criticize for four hours over the words and actions of the ambassador to China, whose replacement was announced two days before the parliamentary inspection.

While President Xi Jinping is likely to visit Korea on the occasion of the APEC in Gyeongju next year, the ruling party has also argued that President Yoon Suk Yeol should visit China first.

This is Beijing correspondent Kang Jeong-gyu.

Ambassador to China Jeong Jae-ho, whose replacement was announced just two days before the parliamentary audit.

He said he will return to Seoul National University after two years and three months of his term.

Opposition lawmakers continued to criticize the correspondents for four hours, including allegations of abusing their power against their subordinates.

[Lee Jae-jeong / Minjoo Party Member: I want to give you one last chance. Would you like to apologize?]

[Jeong Jae-ho / Ambassador to China] I wonder if you are familiar with the relevant issues. (Oh, asking questions without knowing?)]

Ambassador Jeong's passive diplomatic activities were also on the cutting board.

From the appointment of the president's friend as the ambassador to the semifinals to the deterioration of Korea-China relations, it was attributed to the Yoon Suk Yeol government's mistakes.

[Yoon Hoo-duk / Minjoo Party member: It's zero point. 0 points! He was supposed to quit quickly, but he's finally quitting.]

The ruling party lawmakers counter-attacked President Xi Jinping's visit to Korea on the occasion of APEC in Gyeongju next year.

As President Xi did not visit China twice under former President Moon Jae In, he also called for an exclusive visit to Korea before APEC.

[Kim Tae-ho / People's Power: Wouldn't it be meaningful to bring out any form of visit to Korea before that through diplomatic power and politics?]

Some argued that President Yoon should visit China before President Xi's visit to Korea.

Just as the current government reached out first to resolve the strained relations between Korea and Japan during the previous administration, it is intended to take the initiative to create a turning point.

He also raised the need for strategic communication with China, citing "limited nuclear armament" amid the North Korea-China ideal airflow and military tensions on the Korean Peninsula.

[Yoon Sang-hyun / People's Power: Relations with China are also important for our limited nuclear armament on the Korean Peninsula....]

In other words, the ruling and opposition parties called for improved relations with the simultaneous replacement of ambassadors from Korea and China.
