As the re-execution of the arrest warrant for Yoon Suk Yeol's president is on the countdown, the confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties is also sharpening.

The Democratic Party of Korea pressed the Joint Investigation Headquarters to execute the warrant with the determination to retire,

The People's Power has established a day that the Cooperation Agency is actually showing internal communication with the opposition party.

I'm connecting with the National Assembly reporter, reporter Lim Sung-jae!

As the second warrant execution becomes visible, the level of remarks by the ruling and opposition parties toward the investigative agency is also increasing, right?

[Reporter]
The Democratic Party of Korea, which calls for the early execution of an arrest warrant for President Yoon, called on the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit and the police to come forward with the determination to retire from the war.

Recalling that President Yoon's first arrest attempt failed on the 3rd, he pointed out that the same should not be seen this time.

Park Chan-dae, the floor leader of the party, stressed at a meeting of the top committee that the joint investigation headquarters should mobilize all available personnel and equipment to pull President Yoon out of his official residence.

Let's hear the related remarks.

[Park Chan-dae / Minjoo Party floor leader: We need to get Yoon Suk Yeol out of the official residence. We need to straighten up the authority of the collapsed public power and firmly establish the principle that anyone who commits a crime will be punished.]

He warned the presidential security service to cooperate with the execution of the warrant, saying that any acts that interfere with law enforcement will be punished and not to follow the unjust instructions of his superiors.

It is argued that the only way to achieve national normalization is to arrest a rebellion leader.

Party officials said in a phone call with YTN that the only way out for the current political situation is to arrest President Yoon, adding to this logic.

On the other hand, the People's Power criticized the Democratic Party and the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency, saying that it was revealed that the Democratic Party and the investigative agency had actually engaged in illegal communication.He took issue with Lee Sang-sik of the Democratic Party of Korea, who posted an SNS post saying that

acted as a messenger between the party and the National Assembly.

Floor leader Kwon Sung-dong said at a general meeting of lawmakers that the Democratic Party of Korea is in fact leading the national investigation, pointing out that if it planned to execute the arrest warrant together, it would be a serious violation of the constitution.Let's listen to



[Kwon Seong-dong / People's Power Floor Leader: Doesn't it mean that the Democratic Party is openly leading the national investigation? Is Rep. Lee Sang-sik a contact to the police to order 'Yeo-do Emperor' Lee Jae-myung's instructions?]

Senior spokesman Shin Dong-wook also issued a comment, saying that the National Assembly's appearance is the same as that of the Democratic Party's investigation headquarters, and demanded that the attempt to arrest President Yoon was actually made with the Democratic Party's instructions and guidelines.

Although not at the party leadership level, as the execution of the warrant is counting down again, the movement of ruling party lawmakers toward the presidential residence is also drawing attention.

First of all, it is understood that lawmaker Yoon Sang-hyun has visited the front of his official residence again today, and the party is also wary of such a scene.

Kim Jae-seop, vice president of the organization, who is considered to be the younger faction, stressed in an interview with CBS radio that the party should not give the impression of defending the president or jumping into the square.

In response, some analysts say that President Yoon is showing a division at the center, and a key party official explained in a call with YTN that there are various positions rather than differentiation.

A first-term lawmaker from the Yeongnam region, who visited the residence earlier, drew a line on the analysis of the party division, saying that there is only a consensus in the party that "Ban" and "Jeol" should never be represented by Lee Jae-myung.

In the National Assembly, bills that demand reconsideration, including the independent counsel for rebellion and the independent counsel for Mrs. Kim, will be put to a vote again, right?

[Reporter]
The National Assembly will hold a plenary session in the afternoon and re-vote eight bills, including the Bilateral Special Prosecution Act, the Agriculture Act, and the National Assembly Act.These are the bills that the right to request reconsideration was exercised under the acting system after the impeachment of President

Yoon.

The re-voting of the eight bills will be carried out in a anonymous voting manner at once.

In the impeachment process, the political circle is focused on the independent counsel for civil war and the independent counsel law for Mrs. Kim, and the size of the ruling party's departure vote is the biggest concern.

Earlier, in the first vote of the bilateral special prosecution law, five votes were cast for the independent counsel law against civil war and four for the independent counsel law against Kim.

The power of the people, who maintain the party's "no-decision" theory on such a special prosecutor bill, remains in the same opposition for now.

However, some within the party say that they should consult with the opposition party on an alternative to revising the right to recommend the special prosecutor, which is a toxic clause, especially in the case of the independent counsel.

In response, Park Chan-dae, floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, pressed the ruling party lawmakers, saying that opposing the independent counsel law is a declaration that they will sympathize with the civil war and that they will make the Republic of Korea a lawless and dictatorship.

Please also summarize the news of the high-level party council held in the morning at the National Assembly.

[Reporter]
The government and the people's power have decided to designate the 27th, the day before the Lunar New Year holiday, as a temporary holiday at a high-level party-government council.

Following the weekend of the 25th and 26th, everyone will be able to rest six days in a row from the 28th to the 30th of the Lunar New Year holiday.

In a briefing after the meeting, Kim Sang-hoon, chairman of the policy committee, explained that he had consulted with the government to promote the domestic economy and tourism during the Lunar New Year holiday.

At the council, the ruling party also asked Acting President Choi Sang-mok to exercise his right to appoint ministers and others to stabilize state affairs.

Referring to the absence of the Minister of Defense, the head of security, and the Minister of Public Administration and Security, Kwon Sung-dong, the floor leader, asked Choi to prevent the welfare of government officials by appointing a minister and appointing officials from each ministry.

So far, I'm YTN Lim Sungjae in the National Assembly.
