[Asia Economy Reporter Park Cheol-eung] The Korea Economic Party stated in a press release on the 10th, "The true end of COVID-19 is not simply when the number of domestic confirmed cases reaches zero, but when we clearly remember that it lies in restoring the pride and national identity brutally trampled by China." It is a conservative party recently founded with the basic ideology of 'anti-Moon Jae-in and anti-China.'

The Korea Economic Party criticized, "Looking at the initial response to COVID-19, the government brought about despair by concluding that the cause of the spread was 'Koreans coming from China.' A country where 'Daegu COVID' is acceptable, but 'Wuhan pneumonia' is not. A country that utters the absurd statement of 'Daegu lockdown,' yet ultimately refuses to consider 'banning Chinese nationals from entering.'"

They further argued, "Not only with COVID-19, but we remember that China has repeatedly blocked the respiratory health of Koreans. Because the clear spring of the Republic of Korea has long been taken away due to yellow dust and fine dust originating from northern China."

They added, "If this continues, even after the absurd situation of the five-day mask distribution system ends after many twists and turns, we will have no choice but to helplessly follow the government's vehicle restriction guidelines that shift the blame for fine dust onto car exhaust emissions."

The Korea Economic Party strongly criticized, "How did we fall to become a backward nation bearing the complaints against China on behalf of others? How long will you keep making poor excuses to the innocent people while acting as China's puppet?"
