Conflicts between the ruling and opposition parties are escalating due to the unprecedented situation in which the Democratic Party of Korea handles next year's government budget alone at the National Assembly's Special Committee on Budget and Accounts.

The people's power has been blasted as a legislative coup and budget failure to paralyze the government, and the Democratic Party has refuted the right idea to cut the budget for special activities of power organizations that are executed opaquely.

Han Dong-hoon, chairman of the People's Power Party, criticized the Democratic Party of Korea for its "budget misbehavior" for Lee Jae-myung's bulletproof use.

In order to paralyze the state administration, he criticized the ruling and opposition parties for cutting the budget for people's livelihoods and the future budget, saying that it will remain a dark history of the Republic of Korea.
Deputy floor leader Bae Joon-young,
, also criticized that it will be seen as a "legislative coup" to overturn the country by cutting the government's essential budget.

The presidential office also condemned the Democratic Party, saying that the damage caused by the opposition's budget congestion will be to the people.

The ruling party suspects that Lee Jae-myung's intention was behind the Democratic Party's super-strong decision to give up its district budget and its own key budget.

[Kim Yeon-ju / Spokesperson for People's Power: It is an unstoppable cut of the budget that is essential for the people's livelihood, the future and the protection of the weak. Can we affirm that it is not truly related to the judicial risk of representative Lee Jae-myung?]

It is also read that there is room for negotiation before the budget bill goes to the plenary session, but if the Democratic Party does not return the special activity cost budget, it will not be subjected to it.

On the other hand, the Democratic Party refuted that the basic principle was to cut the "opaque budget" that failed to clarify where it was used, and that it had explained it to the government and the ruling party several times.

According to this standard, the issue of special activity costs for the presidential office and investigative agencies was not negotiable in the first place.

He also pointed out why the president did not attend the budget speech if it was so important.

[Rep. Heo Young / Minjoo Party (November 29) : It is very meaningful that we have created room to cut unnecessary budgets and to capture the people's livelihood budgets to save the people.]

Regarding concerns about opposition from lawmakers who have found it difficult to secure the district's budget, he added that there have been several efforts to persuade the party with the intention of "giving weight and taking bones."

First of all, both the ruling and opposition parties are in a mood to not back down from the "budget war," and attention is being paid to whether the last-minute negotiations will be concluded and whether the National Assembly speaker will put the budget bill to the plenary session as it is.
