[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Choyoung] Cho Sujin, Supreme Council Member of the People Power Party, criticized former Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae, who has declared herself as the 'Yoon Seok-yeol sniper,' on the 24th, saying, "Chu's attitude reminds me of former Unified Progressive Party candidate Lee Jeong-hee during the 2012 presidential election."

On the same day, Cho posted on her Facebook under the title "Benchmarking Lee Jeong-hee this time?" stating, "I am not curious about who is the pheasant and who is the hawk."

Cho said, "Former Minister Chu said, 'There is no one who knows former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol better than me. I am the hawk that catches the pheasant,'" adding, "It's almost as if she decided to run for president to 'sniper Yoon Seok-yeol.'

She pointed out, "She made Yoon a leading opposition presidential candidate, and now she says she will snipe him," and added, "At that time, former lawmaker Lee also said, 'I came out to bring down candidate Park Geun-hye.'

Furthermore, Cho mentioned, "During her tenure, former Minister Chu showed a Minister of Justice image that had never been experienced before," and said, "She told the Prosecutor General, 'You cut half of my orders,' 'This is the first time I've seen a prosecutor who doesn't listen to such words,' and 'You are using legal tricks,' and also said, 'If you humbly accepted the minister's command, things would have gone smoothly, but you made things worse by acting like a commander.'

She added, "Regarding the criticism that personnel appointments were made without consulting the Prosecutor General, she said, 'The Prosecutor General disobeyed my orders,'" and questioned, "Will former Minister Chu reveal her vision and plans?"

Earlier, former Minister Chu held a press conference in Heyri, Paju, Gyeonggi Province, announcing her official candidacy for the presidential election, saying, "I will fulfill the great social reform promised to the candlelight citizens."

Former Minister Chu stated, "I want to raise the flag of Chu Mi-ae toward a world where people are higher than money, land, power, and ideology," and "To create a country that elevates people to build a world where people are valued."

She emphasized, "I will create a country of justice, fairness, and the rule of law against the selective justice and fake fairness of vested interests and extralegal acts," and "Those who shake the discipline of the country and use public authority as a means for private gain will be punished in the name of justice, fairness, and the rule of law."
