[Asia Economy Reporters Lee Ji-eun and Kim Hye-min] The United Future Party held an executive committee meeting and decided to reschedule the Standing National Committee and the National Committee for August 6-7, and to extend the term of the Emergency Response Committee Chairperson (Emergency Chairperson) to one year.


Cho Kyung-tae, a senior member of the United Future Party, told reporters after the executive meeting held at the National Assembly on the 29th, "It was decided to hold the Standing National Committee and the National Committee on the 6th or 7th."


He said, "Although I opposed it, there was a proposal to hold the Standing National Committee again to extend the term of the Emergency Chairperson to one year, and an opinion to reopen the Standing National Committee," adding, "(This is) not to delete the party constitution clause that schedules the party convention by the end of August, but to extend the term by about one year."



Senior member Cho said, "The Emergency Committee should act like an emergency committee, and the shorter the term, the better," adding, "We should not make this decision ourselves but pass the heavy responsibility to the newly elected members who will lead the 21st National Assembly."
