[YTN Radio <News Fighting, Bae Seunghee]> Please clarify that it's about the interview.]

◆ Attorney Bae Seung-hee (hereinafter referred to as Bae Seung-hee): This is Bae Seung-hee, fighting for the third part of the news. Here we go. Continuing with the issue interview. Tensions are rising day by day as North Korea has sent a large number of troops to Russia. The government plans to determine the level of response according to North Korea's movement. In this regard, we will talk with Lee In-young of the Democratic Party of Korea. Hello. Yes, hello. I don't think you can say hello. The situation is quite serious right now. In the presidential office right now. The North Korean military's step-by-step response plan. It said it would implement a step-by-step response plan to the North Korean military's dispatch of troops to Russia. How are you watching this?

◇ Rep. Lee In-young of the Democratic Party of Korea (hereinafter referred to as Lee In-young): Literally, I will respond step by step depending on the situation. It's like this, but what's more important than whether it's a step-by-step response or not is what kind of strategic direction basic principles will be checked and responded. In the meantime, there has been a basic focus on humanitarian cooperation and supporting non-lethal equipment in the direction of some basic principles that the Korean government consistently responds to other countries' wars, but I think we should look at it from this perspective if we explicitly support weapons of death or even consider sending troops to our armed forces.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes. Sending that weapon. But wouldn't a weapon be a weapon of killing if used on this side and a defense weapon if used on the other side?

◇ Lee In-young: Even so, these things that support such blatant weapons of destruction are basically against peace in the first place. It is also a position that it should never be because it is a problem contrary to the concerns of the Korean people.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: The government uses the term "observance team" or "monitoring team" to monitor the activities of the North Korean troops dispatched, but will observe it, not send any troops. I think that's how it's expressed. I'm in a position to send this observation group. Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun emphasized that it would be a dereliction of duty if he did not send this observation team.

◇ Lee In-young: I don't know. As a government, the process of figuring out the situation of the Ukraine war and the charter seems to be necessary. However, these activities are issues that should check the so-called non-exposure activities, and not only is it appropriate to observe the war, such as sending an observation team like this publicly, but I don't know about acting openly like this. It's not desirable. And especially because of the potential for some additional tension or military action from its exposure, you're not dealing with it so wisely and wisely. You have to look at it like this.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Then you mentioned this non-exposure activity. If I didn't disclose sending the observers, can I send them?

◇ Lee In-young: Basically, according to our Constitution, the dispatch of troops is a process that requires the consent of the National Assembly. However, if you are attempting to dispatch troops indirectly in the ambiguous expression of this observation group, I think it should be criticized and criticized.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes. However, the government seems to have stated its position in a slightly different sense from the dispatch of Lee's troops. Kim Byung-joo, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea's supreme council, claimed that he would impeach the defense minister if he sent the observation team without the consent of the National Assembly. I think it's really a reason for impeachment.

◇ Lee In-young: There are so-called black agents like this. Whether it's the military or the National Intelligence Service, and there are some ways that we can approach to the least through this process, such as the delegation of observers, and furthermore, these acts that can openly stimulate the tide of war are actually military acts, so those parts can be grounds for impeachment because they are constitutional violations.
◆ Bae Seung-hee: You're pointing out the part you sent publicly.

◇ Lee In-young: Are these acts of sending troops in effect, not only in public but in private? That is, of course, unfair, so we emphasize those spirits

◆ Bae Seung-hee: The Democratic Party of Korea sees the dispatch of this observation team as a de facto dispatch.

◇ Lee In-young: I think it's a warning that it shouldn't continue like that.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: I think it's a warning. a ∀ that does not appear to be a dispatch
◇ Lee In-young: What action hasn't happened yet? So you have to look at it a little more

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes, that's right. Regarding the North Korean military's dispatch to Russia, the U.N. Security Council criticized it as a bulletproof situation. The U.S. also said that the North Korean military is a body bag, but he'll be back in a body bag. That's how I warned you. How did you like it?

◇ Lee In-young: First of all, the expression is a little too harsh. I think it's too stimulating and it's the beginning of a kind of psychological warfare.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: You said it's the beginning of psychological warfare, but isn't this psychological warfare very important? 6. Even in the 25th, psychological warfare was very effective in the process of the North Korean military's defection. Then isn't it possible to play this psychological game?

◇ Lee In-young: Because there are so many different forms of psychological warfare. There are also talks about distributing leaflets in Korean in Ukraine. Not only that, but it is not desirable for North Korea to participate in the Ukraine-Russia war on the international stage. These can be such areas. Also, if many people in the North don't know about it, it is not desirable for the North's military to be sent to Russia and Ukraine in a wide variety of areas, including the occurrence of these things, but I think it would be much more important for us to manage such a basic charter so that the wars in Ukraine and Russia are not moved to the intensification of tensions on the Korean Peninsula and, in some cases, to some kind of international war.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes, I would like to ask you about this. There are rumors that North Korean troops have been deployed in the war in Ukraine and related videos are being reported, but of course, President Zelenskyy denies this. How much do you get to know if the actual North Korean military was put into the battle?

◇ Lee In-young: So far, there has been no specific circumstances or evidence used in the North Korean battle, has there been no evidence? I just want my honest feelings to stop at this point and North Korea to go back to the North. That's what I think.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: What internal concerns did the North Koreans have? The families of soldiers dispatched to North Korea were also quarantined, and the inside did not tell us such news, so residents who knew about it sobbed and visited North Korean soldiers. How do you look at these parts? Kim Jong-un

◇ Lee In-young: I haven't acquired that information yet, to be exact. And since there are reports about stories or things like this, I can't say anything clearly. But North Koreans sent their troops to the war in Russia and Ukraine. I'm also curious about how they will react to things like being dispatched. Any Korean people living on the Korean Peninsula will have doubts about whether such a move is desirable for our people to move toward peace, and especially those in the South should stop now because it is undesirable and could be a factor in the escalation of tension on the Korean Peninsula. You have these basic ideas,

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes. However, representative Lee Jae-myung seems to be leading the escalation of tensions on the Korean Peninsula to a certain issue of political strife by talking about magic and continuing to look at this security. How do you see this?

◇ Lee In-young: Rather, the question of political strife is that this government is dealing with war with political intentions. Facts

◆ Bae Seung-hee: If it's political intention, who is it?

◇ Lee In-young: For example, as I said earlier, these processes of non-exposure activities are common in the process of judging the situation or charter. There are more concerns about the political intention of sending top-level officials of the National Intelligence Service to the government delegation and the recent public opinion surrounding the Yoon Suk Yeol government and First Lady Kim Gun-hee. In fact, through magical stories and so on, there are many doubts and eyes of the people about whether they are running the country or the like this recently. In the process, there are also rumors of silence, but a clear message was from Lee Jae-myung about the fact that our response to this war should be rational, not so irrational. I would rather interpret it that way

◆ Bae Seung-hee: That's how both the ruling and opposition parties should be treated. That's what you're talking about. North Korea fired an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) into the East Sea yesterday. The U.S. presidential election is just around the corner. Why did you shoot this ICBM all of a sudden?

◇ Lee In-young: First of all, don't we usually talk about two things? One is North Korea ahead of the U.S. presidential election. It is also a process of raising the so-called ransom to show off such existence. Another thing is that the dispatch of troops to Ukraine has led to certain criticism and criticism, so it was also aimed at dispersing the perspective. Nevertheless, I guess it was also a process of confirming the North's own military and technological progress related to missiles. According to their report, this is not Mars 18, but Mars 19, which is a complete version in its weight and range. There is also a process of checking the possibility of multiple warheads in the United States or elsewhere, and I think this process of checking the advancement of missiles based on military and technical demands has the same meaning.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Then I think the Democratic Party of Korea's position on North Korea's ICBM launch. What do you think?

◇ Lee In-young: When it comes to ICBM launches, it's ICBM. Regarding the launch of this, I think it is an undesirable act at this critical time when we must make peace on the Korean Peninsula through dialogue. And that's our party's consistent position, as it was during the Moon Jae In government.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: What I'm curious about is that you also served as the Minister of Unification. The Moon Jae In government and the President of Yoon Suk Yeol, so the North Korean policy is completely different from that of the Yoon Suk Yeol government, so how do you evaluate this?

◇Lee In-young: The person who served as the Minister of Unification when the Yoon Suk Yeol government first came in, said, "Unification policy should be followed by unification policy." I was looking forward to it when there was this expression. And in fact, since the Yoon Suk Yeol government is a conservative government, it would be much more desirable if the conservative government took a policy of peaceful coexistence and common prosperity. That's what I thought. And in the case of Germany, the Eastern policy began in the three-party government, but as the CDU government continued, didn't the CDU achieve final unification in the end? In view of that, it is recommended that inter-Korean relations, especially North Korea policy, be carried out in this way so that they can approach peacefully through dialogue and negotiations consistently and peacefully, and reach unification peacefully. I thought so, but the Kim ∀ administration cut it off

◆ Bae Seunghee: Is it disconnected? Uh

◇ Lee In-young: It's very disappointing to see a return to the past beyond the disconnection, and I personally felt discouraged in such a way that the future of our people is this big.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: I see. I'd like to ask you something starting with the two countries theory, but due to the time limit today, we'll move on to the next one. The Democratic Party of Korea released a recording of Myung Tae-kyun yesterday. The presidential office immediately refuted that it had never been reported or ordered to nominate candidates. How did you like it?

◇ Lee In-young: I don't know. I've never talked to Myung Tae-kyun on the phone since I was elected, but I've never been briefed on or ordered a nomination, but that's a change of words. It is not possible to explain the change of words, and despite the excuse, I suspect that the excuse is a process that leads to falsehood. And if I do this, I think I will be on the stage of a really scary judgment from the people.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Yes. Rep. Park Soo-young, the power of the people, said this. He refuted the suspicion that former President Moon Jae In should interfere in the Ulsan mayoral election. How did you like me?

◇Lee In-young: There is no evidence that President Moon Jae In interfered in the Ulsan mayoral election. In that sense, I'm doing this skillfully. You have to look at it like that. Watering is really much lower than watering. Like this

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Rep. Park Soo-hyun's rebuttal is a very low level of water table. Following the release of the recording of Lee Myung-tae-kyun's call, the Democratic Party of Korea also announced an outdoor rally tomorrow. The People's Power criticized it as a bulletproof rally ahead of Lee Jae-myung's sentencing. What do you think?

◇ Lee In-young: We've had a very important political schedule called parliamentary inspection, so we've refrained from doing so, but the public's anger surrounding Kim Gun-hee, especially this decision-making process that does not prosecute her to the prosecution, and the recent suspicions of nomination through some strange and unusual line of nomination, or any involvement in the state affairs process, come out like this, but I don't think it's the opposition party if the opposition party stays still. In the past, I think our people would have criticized and criticized the Sakura opposition. Now, it is also responsible for the opposition party to act according to the degree of such people's actions. I think so.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Okay. Ahead of Lee Jae-myung's first trial, political circles continue to talk about the three Kims era, Kim Kyung-soo, Kim Dong-hyun, and Kim Boo-kyum, if they are found guilty. Can this come to mind as an alternative?

◇ Lee In-young: I don't know. I don't know who will be the final alternative. Of course, some people are ahead of them now, but more importantly, what kind of zeitgeist will our party equip in the next presidential election,

◆ Bae Seunghee: The Spirit of the Time

◇ Lee In-young: What values and visions will be created? I think these things should pop out more like the real thing.

◆Bae Seung-Hee: Then this Sam Kim is

◇Lee In-young: It is desirable for anyone, including these people, to freely jump into such a new stage and shout new values and visions to prepare for the next presidential election as a venue for a fun democratic festival. That's what I think.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Are you participating? Should we do this doll era, not the era of 3 Kims?

◇ Lee In-young: I don't know. That's what the host gave me.
◆ Bae Seung-hee: The Democratic Party of Korea confirmed yesterday that former lawmaker Yoon Kwan-seok was sentenced to two years in prison by the Supreme Court. In the future, it is analyzed that current and former lawmakers involved in the allegations are also more likely to be guilty at trial. Do we need the Democratic Party's statement of position?

◇ Lee In-young: Yes, the Democratic Party has basically opposed any undemocratic activities in the party's primary and convention process, and in that sense, lawmakers have also banned them from participating in any public primary activities in certain candidate camps, right? I think we will take a basic action in this process and that those lawmakers who are pointed out to be involved in some cases in the future are all denying the allegations, so I think we will deal with them while watching those processes.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Some are not responding to the prosecution's summons. What do you think?

◇ Lee In-young: There are also people who respond. I think they should respond confidently to it and deal with it by denying that it's not.

◆ Bae Seung-hee: Okay. We listened to you calmly today. As expected, listening to the performance makes me feel solemn. Thank you for your words today. So far, I have been with Lee In-young of the Democratic Party of Korea. Thank you.

◇ Lee In-young: Thank you.
