Minju made a bet on the amendment of the special prosecution...Ruling Party Remains Disagreed About 'Special Counsel'

[Anchor]
The Democratic Party of Korea, which tried to deal with the "Kim Gun-hee Special Prosecutor Act" at the plenary session of the National Assembly on the 14th, announced that it would submit an amendment to drastically reduce the subject of the special prosecutor's investigation.

This is the party's position that came out after the Democratic Party's closed Supreme Council a while ago.

The ruling party has announced a general meeting of lawmakers to discuss the special inspector, but some predict that it will not be easy to reach an agreement within the party.

I'm connecting you with a reporter from the National Assembly. Reporter Kim Dayeon!

The Democratic Party decided to push for an amendment to the special counsel?

I think it's a bit different from the previous position, so please tell me in detail what it's about!

[Reporter]
Yes, it was in the 'review' stage until yesterday, but a little while ago, she expressed her intention to push for an amendment to the special prosecutor's office Kim through a morning meeting.

Han Min-soo, a spokesman for the Democratic Party of Korea, met with reporters after the closed-door supreme council and explained that he would submit an amendment to the National Assembly plenary session on the 14th.

The existing independent counsel law includes 13 allegations as subject to investigation, but the amendment includes allegations of involvement in Deutsche Motors stock manipulation

The key is to drastically reduce the number of investigations due to the controversy involving Myung Tae-kyun, who is of great public interest.

He also said he would accept a method in which a "third party," not an opposition party, recommends a special prosecutor, which is also a method proposed earlier by Han Dong-hoon, the leader of the People's Power, over the Special Prosecutor Act on Chae Sang-byung.

It is interpreted as an intention to pressure the ruling party by pointing out that the subject of the investigation is ambiguous and abstract, and by accepting the method proposed earlier by representative Han.

In a phone call with YTN this morning, a key official of Lee Jae-myung's party said, "Let's reach a political agreement by listening to what the ruling party wants."

The power of the people is that the special prosecutor itself cannot be accepted, and floor leader Choo Kyung-ho said in the morning meeting that he is firmly opposed to the anti-constitutional bad independent counsel law, signaling a proposal to exercise the president's right to request reconsideration.

CEO Han Dong-hoon's position will be communicated as soon as it is covered.

The ruling party is holding a general meeting of lawmakers to discuss the special inspector this week, right?

[Reporter]
Yes, the plan is to hold a general meeting of the members on the 14th, when the opposition party announced the plenary session.

The special inspector system is an independent body of the presidential office that inspects the president's relatives, including the first lady, and is nominated by the president when the National Assembly recommends candidates.

Chairman Han Dong-hoon publicly mentioned it on the 23rd of last month, and the discussion began in earnest, and there were many differences such as "It's good for the Democratic Party" and "The party negotiation strategy is shaken," which seemed to spread to internal discord within the party.

However, it seems that President Yoon Suk Yeol has opened the door for discussion at a recent press conference, saying that he will definitely appoint him if he receives a recommendation from the National Assembly.A key representative of

told YTN that negative public opinion has not yet fallen out, reiterating the need for a reform measure, namely a special inspector.

However, there is still opposition.

In a phone call with YTN, a first-term lawmaker also explained the internal atmosphere that there seems to be a sense of crisis among lawmakers who have been through the impeachment process that the special inspector could be the beginning of the impeachment.

Therefore, some predict that the discussion itself may be focused on rather than any results from this general meeting.

The ruling and opposition parties' political consultative body was also launched today, so what discussions have been exchanged?

[Reporter]
Initially, the goal was to launch a consultative body in which the ruling party, opposition parties, the medical community and the government all participated, but once the opposition party and some medical community were absent, the anchor was raised.

Kim Sung-won, a member of the People's Power who attended as the ruling party's representative, told reporters after the meeting that he would reach meaningful results by the end of next month.

At the closed meeting, the issue of the return of the resignation major was mentioned, but it was found that the increase in medical school in the 25th grade was not discussed.

Senior spokesman Han Ji-ah again urged the opposition to participate, saying that the health of the people is the purpose of the consultative body and the method is communication.

The council plans to hold a small meeting every Wednesday starting this week and a general meeting at 2 p.m. on Sunday.
