Former South Korean Leader Calls for Opposition-Recommended Appointments

South Korean News: 이준석 Argues for Opposition-Recommended Appointments of Special Inspectors and Audit Chairman

Former leader 이준석 of the People Power Party, amidst the ongoing push for a new political party, has argued for the appointment of special inspectors and an audit chairman through opposition recommendations. In a press conference held at the National Assembly’s communication office, 이준석 unveiled the “Reform New Party” and emphasized the need for opposition-recommended appointments.

Appointment of Special Inspectors

이준석 specifically highlighted the installation of a special inspector for the second annex office, which is associated with First Lady 김건희. He stressed the importance of appointing a special inspector recommended by the opposition, citing concerns about negative public opinion surrounding 김건희 and the need to consider her comfort and convenience.

Appointment of Audit Chairman

While the presidential office holds the position that the audit chairman should be recommended, 이준석 argued that the opposition should have the authority to recommend the appointment. He also predicted that the current administration under 윤석열 would not accept such recommendations.

Evaluation of Success Possibility

Regarding the regime of 한동훈, the emergency planning committee chairman of the People Power Party, 이준석 expressed a low evaluation of the possibility of President 윤 crossing the boundaries of the ideology he has drawn. He suggested that the party’s unification efforts would likely be limited.

Expected Impact on Domestic Politics

This discussion and argument are anticipated to have a significant impact on the domestic political situation in South Korea.
