The floor leaders of the ruling and opposition parties held a press conference at the National Assembly today.
Earlier, Park Chan-dae, floor leader of the Democratic Party, urged Acting President Han Deok-soo to promulgate the independent counsel law and the Kim Gun-hee independent counsel law by the day after tomorrow.
On the other hand, Kwon Sung-dong, the floor leader and acting party leader, said, "The independent counsel law is intended to paralyze the state affairs."
The
Democratic Party criticized Han for making threatening remarks.
Earlier, I broadcast the floor leader Park's announcement live.
Since it is
, let's hear the announcement of the press conference of Kwon Sung-dong, floor leader and acting party leader.

The Insurrection Special Prosecutor Act and the Special Prosecutor Act of First Lady Kim Gun-hee, which were transferred to the government, are basically based on the Democratic Party's plan to paralyze state affairs and the ruling party. Throughout the Yoon Suk Yeol administration, the Democratic Party has issued this kind of special prosecution, impeachment, and this kind of breakdown of state affairs. Prosecutors, police, and the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit are investigating allegations of civil war in the Dec. 3rd Presidential Declaration of the Verse of Commerce. In the process, many point out that excessive overlapping of investigations and overheated competition for investigations are blocking fair investigations.
However, the opposition party is asking for a permanent special prosecutor and a general special prosecutor in addition to this. It is a clear violation of the Constitution that the opposition party monopolizes the right to recommend candidates for the special prosecution. It is rather a violation of the Constitution to not use the veto power even though the unconstitutional element is clear. In particular, if a total of five organizations, including the police, prosecutors, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, the permanent special prosecution, and the general special prosecution, investigate the serious case of rebellion, it will encourage overheated investigation competition. What the people want is a strict fact-finding, not a confusion in the investigation.
The Democratic Party of Korea seems to be focusing on encouraging loyalty competition among power organizations rather than finding out the truth about the case. Kim Gun-hee's special prosecutor law, which was proposed and passed for the fourth time, is actually a special prosecutor for the government and the ruling party. The opposition-recommended special prosecutor's plan to investigate 15 cases of the government and the ruling party is a riot by the special prosecutor. In particular, based on the unilateral claims of Myung Tae-kyun and Kang Hye-kyung in connection with the allegations of Myung Tae-kyun, the plan is to randomly investigate people's powerful figures and raid and search the company from time to time. In the end, it is a political repression special prosecution law with an early presidential election in mind when citing impeachment of the president. The People's Power is carefully considering how to respond to the bilateral special prosecution law and gathering opinions within the party.
I'll think about what direction it will help to find out the truth quickly and fairly. In addition, I regret that the Democratic Party of Korea does not stop its political special prosecution despite gathering the will of cooperation through the ruling and opposition party-government consultative body. The Democratic Party's impeachment rampage has not stopped. Acting President Han Deok-soo is making threatening remarks, including the decision to impeach him before Christmas, and the push for impeachment early next month. In fact, it means that it will not be able to destroy the state administration. The exercise of the right to request reconsideration by the acting president is a matter to be decided only in consideration of the Constitution.
To criticize the veto of the two independent counsel laws, it is a priority to remove the unconstitutional elements of the bill. Meanwhile, the opposition calls for the president to exercise his own powers, such as the appointment of a constitutional judge. At the same time, we call for impeachment on the exercise of the right to reject the unconstitutional law. In the end, it forces the acting president to follow the Democratic Party's partisan interests, not the Constitution. If the Democratic Party of Korea is serious at all about stabilizing state affairs, it should immediately stop the threat of sub-prime acquisition toward the acting president.
Furthermore, several political impeachment proposals, except for the president, should be withdrawn. What on earth has the Democratic Party actually done so far while calling for stability in state affairs? If the Democratic Party of Korea commits intimidating impeachment that shakes the state of affairs again, it is to confess that the stability of state affairs that the Democratic Party called out was deceiving the people and in fact only greed to make President Lee Jae-myung. Let me tell you about the ruling-opposition political consultative body. In accordance with the belief that the National Assembly should do its part to give relief to the people under the emergency of the presidential suspension and minimize internal and external unrest, he expressed his intention to participate in the ruling and opposition party-government consultative body.
Whether the party leader will attend or the floor leader will attend is an issue to be discussed head-to-head, not to fight each other stubbornly. What matters is not the participants, but the people. Last Friday, despite expressing its intention to participate in the ruling-opposition-government consultative body, the Democratic Party of Korea is only making a political offensive without any response. It is questionable whether the Democratic Party of Korea has sincerity in the operation of the ruling-opposition consultative body and the stability of state affairs. I propose to floor leader Park Chan-dae to meet immediately today to discuss the ruling-opposition government consultative body. I believe that if you think about the country and the people, you will respond. The people's power is agonizing a lot over the formation of an emergency committee for the reorganization and reform of the party. This is because not only the stability of state affairs but also the harmony and innovation of the party cannot be missed. To this end, we have listened to the voices of our fellow lawmakers and have gathered the opinions of the elders who are unwavering in their support for the power of the people. I think I will be able to report it to the people in the near future. We ask for your continued interest and support in the concerns of the people's power for responsible politics.
