[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Ahn Cheol-soo, leader of the People’s Party, stated on the 11th regarding the 21st general election, “If this election becomes a mobilization battle between the entrenched two major parties and the ruling party wins riding the wave of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) atmosphere, I am truly worried about the governance of the Republic of Korea.”


On the same day on Twitter, Ahn said, “The ruling party will use all kinds of schemes and tricks to bring down Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol,” adding, “It is probably because they need to cover up their own corruption that they want to hide.”


Ahn claimed, “If the prosecution is neutralized, there is a high possibility that the four major power-related corruption suspicions of the current administration will be buried,” and “At the regime level, they will try to cover up the truth behind major financial incidents such as the Ulsan mayoral election fraud, Lime scandal, and Shinrajen scandal, as well as the Burning Sun incident.”


Ahn pointed out, “The errors of disastrous economic policies that ruin our economy, such as income-led growth, mechanical 52-hour workweek, and nuclear phase-out, will continue,” and “The country’s economy will become even more difficult along with the aftermath of COVID-19, and small business owners, micro self-employed, ordinary households, and the employment market will collapse.”


Ahn stated, “Diplomatically and in terms of security, the balance diplomacy between China and the U.S. is breaking down, deepening dependence on China, and the invisible cracks in the Korea-U.S. alliance will widen,” adding, “This will make security unstable and act as another factor of national division.” He further said, “By watching North Korea’s reactions and being led around, South-North political and military disadvantages will arise, and North Korea’s nuclear possession will become a fait accompli,” adding, “As the normalization of North Korea is delayed, the easing of tensions on the Korean Peninsula and permanent peaceful coexistence will be equally difficult and delayed.”



Ahn emphasized, “You must make the People’s Party the first party in the proportional representation vote,” and “With at least 20% or more of the party vote, we must show the entrenched powers that the reformist public sentiment in this land is alive, and we must create a ruling minority opposition majority structure where no party exceeds the majority.”
