[Asia Economy Reporters Oh Ju-yeon and Lee Myung-hwan] Former Presidential Chief of Staff Noh Young-min stated on the 1st, "The greatest achievement of the Moon Jae-in administration will be the birth of the Lee Jae-myung government," emphasizing, "Verified and capable economic president, President Lee Jae-myung will inherit the democratic government, fill in its shortcomings, and even if there are mistakes, overcome them and open a new era."


Former Chief of Staff Noh made these remarks during a support speech for candidate Lee held at Noon Square in Myeong-dong, Seoul, in the afternoon. After mentioning the achievements of the Kim Dae-jung and Roh Moo-hyun administrations, he said, "Despite all achievements, the greatest achievement of the Moon administration will be the birth of the Lee Jae-myung government."


He added, "The Moon administration is laying the foundation for a prosperous Korean Peninsula beyond peace," and also said, "A declaration to end the war is now just a matter of time."


Former Chief of Staff Noh emphasized, "I believe that the positions of major countries regarding the declaration to end the war have effectively reached an agreement," and stated, "We are now moving toward an era of prosperity on the Korean Peninsula beyond peace."


He also evaluated, "Legal and institutional reforms of power agencies, such as the adjustment of prosecution and police investigative authority, have been achieved," adding, "For the first time since liberation, reforms of power agencies are being carried out by the government."



Targeting Yoon Seok-youl, the People Power Party's presidential candidate, he criticized, "The president is a grave position that should not rely on (experts') heads," and said, "If two aides say one should raise interest rates and the other says they should be lowered, whose advice would the president follow? Ultimately, the president must make the judgment himself."
