[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Joo Ho-young, floor leader of the People Power Party, stated on the 9th that regarding the Democratic Party of Korea's position that the head of the High-ranking Officials' Crime Investigation Unit must be appointed within this month, "Our party has veto power, and thorough verification is necessary," adding, "I don't understand why the Democratic Party is in such a hurry."

Meeting with reporters at the National Assembly that afternoon, Floor Leader Joo said, "(The Democratic Party) is trying to force it through by November," and added, "They are basically saying to blindly agree to the person they recommended. That cannot be allowed."

Regarding the formation of a bipartisan delegation to visit the United States at the National Assembly level, Floor Leader Joo said, "I agree because I believe that in diplomacy related to national interests, cooperation should be made regardless of party or faction," but added, "However, I think the timing and other details need to be examined more carefully."
