[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jin-young] Kim Tae-nyeon, the floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, on the 3rd demanded an apology, calling Kim Jong-in, the emergency committee chairman of the People Power Party, who raised suspicions about the ‘North Korean nuclear power plant’ and criticized President Moon Jae-in as “an act of treason,” an “unforgivable outrageous remark.”


At the Supreme Council meeting held at the National Assembly that morning, Floor Leader Kim said, “Chairman Kim’s remark about an act of treason is an outrageous statement that cannot be overlooked or tolerated.”


He added, “The USB (portable storage device) delivered to North Korea was also delivered to the United States. It has been revealed that Chairman Kim’s ruinous agitation is false,” and criticized, “The statement by the leader of the main opposition party accusing the government and the current president of treason based on false grounds is the worst national disorder in constitutional history.”


He continued, “No matter how much it is a political remark intended to be used in the election, it has crossed the line of politics that should not be crossed,” and emphasized, “Chairman Kim must take political and legal responsibility for this. We strongly demand that he take responsibility for his outrageous remarks and apologize to the people.”


Floor Leader Kim criticized strongly, saying, “The politics of the North Korean scare tactic, which tries to gain election help through colorism and North Korean wind, must now disappear forever from the political scene,” and “If the innovation and change pursued by Chairman Kim is a return to old-fashioned politics, he should now step down from his political duties.”



He also said to Chairman Kim, “I hope you no longer show outdated politics that are anachronistic under the pretext of elections and politics,” and added, “The place for relics that do not fit the times is not in real politics but in the museum of history.”
