View original image[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jun-yi] Woo Sang-ho, Emergency Response Committee Chairman of the Democratic Party of Korea, expressed concerns about the government's response to international situations such as the Russia-Ukraine war and US-China conflicts, calling it "complacent."
On the 4th, Chairman Woo attended the 'Special Committee on Economic Crisis Response Seminar' held at the National Assembly Members' Office Building and said, "Following the US-China conflict, the prolonged war between Ukraine and Russia is causing significant difficulties. Therefore, it is not a matter that can be simply blamed on President Yoon Suk-yeol," adding, "The important thing is whether the Yoon administration thoroughly reviews these issues and prepares mid- to long-term alternatives. In that regard, the provisional judgment is somewhat insufficient."
On the same day, Kim Tae-nyeon, Chairman of the Economic Special Committee, stated, "The US and Europe have responded to Russia with economic sanctions, and Russia has retaliated by cutting off energy and food supplies, escalating the conflict," and added, "Not only due to these impacts but also various other complex factors, the era of globalization is facing significant changes."

He further suggested, "Economic security strategies must be thoroughly centered on national interests and be pragmatic," and advised, "We should quietly and strategically pursue trade diversification and diversify value chains, ultimately reducing dependence on China gradually. It is not the time for irresponsible economic officials or policy authorities from the government and ruling party to provoke conflicts."
