[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Hyun-joo] Joo Ho-young, floor leader of the People Power Party, demanded an explanation from the president on the 31st regarding allegations that the Moon Jae-in administration attempted to build nuclear power plants for North Korea.

On the same day, Joo said on his Facebook, "If completely dismantling our nuclear capabilities while supporting North Korea's nuclear power plants is not an act of treason, then what is?" He questioned, "Is this why Minister Choo Mi-ae led the 'knife dance' to drive out Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol, who was digging into the nuclear power plant economic feasibility manipulation case?"

He asked, "What was the data contained in the USB that the president reportedly handed to Kim Jong-un at the Panmunjom Dohobari?" and "Among the nuclear power plant-related data deleted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy, what data ended up in Kim Jong-un's hands?" He also said, "If data related to our light-water reactors fell into North Korea's hands, it would have opened the way for North Korea to secure commercial light-water reactors."

Joo Ho-young added, "As President Moon Jae-in approaches the end of his term, the public is anxious about what kind of 'dance' he will perform with Kim Jong-un this time," and said, "We want to hear a detailed explanation from the president."
