[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunju Lee] Ahn Cheol-soo, the presidential candidate of the People’s Party, urged on the 24th, "The government must clearly state its position and countermeasures regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine."

In an emergency statement released that day, Candidate Ahn said, "This afternoon, Russia began a full-scale invasion war by invading the Donbas region of Ukraine and bombing the capital Kyiv," adding, "The world is concerned about Russia’s military actions and strongly condemns them."

He continued, "In this serious international situation that could escalate into World War III, the Blue House must clearly disclose what preparations it is making and how," warning, "It must listen to criticism that it is causing a security lame duck by consistently being cautious, ignoring world peace and alliances."

Candidate Ahn emphasized, "It is frustrating to see what the Blue House and the ruling party are doing, and what the main opposition party is doing beyond political calculations in this crisis," and urged, "I call for quick and responsible decisions and actions from the political circles and the Moon Jae-in administration." He added, "President Moon is expected to fulfill his responsibilities as president based on universal world values, norms, and the principles of liberal democracy."
