Kim Jong-in: "There has never been as many Blue House stormtroopers running in an election as in this general election"
[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Kim Jong-in, the General Election Commissioner of the United Future Party, emphasized the 'regime judgment theory' on the 7th, saying, "There has never been a case where so many Blue House shock troops have run in an election like this general election."
On the 7th, at the office of candidate Jeong Tae-geun in Seongbuk-eul, Commissioner Kim said, "These people are afraid that if they do not win the general election, they will ultimately face the judgment of the law."
He said, "The government is only trying to figure out how to win the general election and completely cover up their past mistakes," adding, "The ruling party of the 20th National Assembly is a 'rubber-stamp ruling party' that considers carrying out the Blue House's orders as its greatest mission. If such a party is given the majority, it is obvious how the 21st National Assembly will be operated."
Regarding the prosecution, he said, "Recently, the prosecution has been determined to properly investigate various cases, so the attacks on the Prosecutor General, who is leading the effort to properly uphold Korean law, are very strong," adding, "Isn't it because those who strictly enforce the law cannot hide the various crimes they have committed so far?"
He pointed out, "The most loyal person working in this government of the Republic of Korea is the current Prosecutor General. That's why the president appointed him as Prosecutor General," and criticized, "Cho Kuk is already a person who has been impeached in the hearts of the people, but perhaps because of too much affection for him, five months ago he was called the most excellent personnel, and then five months later, without any explanation, it was overturned again."
Commissioner Kim emphasized, "Elections are originally meant to judge the right and wrong of the ruling power. If the ruling power had governed the country well over the past three years, the opposition party would originally have no standing in the election," adding, "The ruling party has not achieved any results in any field of our country over the past three years, and I am confident that voters will make a proper judgment."
He particularly criticized the deterioration of the economy. Commissioner Kim said, "As we have passed the last three years, people must feel better than anyone how economic life has gradually worsened. Our economy is already in a state of decline," adding, "The government does not properly recognize the economic situation of our country, and excessive minimum wage increases and reduced working hours are threatening the survival of self-employed people and small business owners."
He continued, "Our country's key industries are all struggling with deficits. Due to an immature decision to declare nuclear phase-out, Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO), which used to make a surplus, has turned to a deficit, and there is no way to manage this," adding, "The economic difficulties caused by the COVID-19 situation are only a preview, and when the real economic corona hits, no one knows where our economy will go."

Regarding the response to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), he said, "In the US and Europe, governments are releasing money through various measures, but we are saying that 1 million won will be given per household in response to the COVID-19 situation, and there is no disclosure about what will happen next," adding, "They say they will give the 1 million won after the election and when the National Assembly opens, but in the meantime, the Korean economy is likely to fall into a very deep abyss."
