[Asia Economy reporters Lee Ji-eun and Lim Chun-han] Members of the United Future Party raised their voices demanding the immediate withdrawal of the 'Resolution Urging the Declaration of the End of the War,' which was supported by 173 members of the ruling coalition, including members of the Democratic Party of Korea.


On the 15th, United Future Party lawmakers, including Shin Won-sik, stated, "It is the height of irresponsibility and sheer nonsense for the Democratic Party to talk about a declaration of the end of the war regarding the North Korean regime, which shamelessly threatens military action against the Republic of Korea and its people under the pretext of leaflets sent to the North."


The lawmakers said, "Currently, there is no sign of resolving the North Korean nuclear issue, and North Korea's strategy to subjugate the South remains unchanged," adding, "The true precondition for ending the war on the Korean Peninsula can only be met when these two major issues are resolved, and a military trust relationship and verification system between the South and the North are established."


They continued, "A declaration of the end of the war would not remain a mere political statement but would directly lead to a peace agreement, ultimately resulting in the dissolution of the United Nations Command, the withdrawal of U.S. troops stationed in Korea, and the collapse of the South Korea-U.S. alliance, which is the core pillar of our national security, inevitably leading to the complete breakdown of our security posture."



United Future Party lawmakers argued, "The Democratic Party should face the history of the Munich Agreement and the Paris Agreement, which led to devastating wars, and strongly urge participation in the 'Resolution Urging North Korean Provocation Cessation and Denuclearization,' proposed by the United Future Party, instead of the unrealistic and extremely dangerous declaration of the end of the war."
