[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The New Conservative Party raised its voice of criticism against the government and ruling party, calling the recent prosecutorial personnel reshuffle on the 8th a 'retaliatory personnel move.'

Lee Jong-cheol, spokesperson for the New Conservative Party, stated in a commentary on the 10th, "Those who privatize power and 'defy the people' will not be forgiven," criticizing the situation.

The spokesperson pointed out, "Those who carried out retaliatory personnel moves because they were being investigated privatized power and defied the people," adding, "At the center of this is President Moon Jae-in."

He said, "Minister Chu Mi-ae was nothing more than a pawn on a 'prearranged chessboard,' and Prime Minister Lee Nak-yeon and Democratic Party leader Lee Hae-chan have joined in. They are all in cahoots," criticizing, "The minister is a straw man, the prime minister has fallen to a mere 'henchman,' and the ruling party leader is faithfully playing the role of 'Red Guard commander'."

The spokesperson referred to Prime Minister Lee's early remarks on the Cho Kuk incident, saying "The prosecution is trying to politicize and challenge," and said, "Prime Minister Lee, who is leading the presidential race, has now lost his qualifications by riding the madness of power that tramples on the rule of law and the constitution," adding, "The people of Jongno, the political center, must judge Prime Minister Lee who says he will run there."
