[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The People Power Party proposed that the public face reality and join President Yoon Suk-yeol's "Bold Initiative" in response to North Korea's launch of an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) passing over Japanese airspace on the 4th.

Senior Spokesperson Yang Geum-hee said in a statement that day, "If the Kim Jong-un regime thinks it can secure its safety through threats, it is a grave miscalculation."

He pointed out that North Korea's missile launch "has already crossed the line to be considered a message for negotiations," and warned, "North Korea's reckless provocation will face resolute responses from our military, allied countries, and the international community." In this regard, he also mentioned President Yoon's declaration of "an acting alliance" at the Armed Forces Day ceremony on the 1st, stating, "If North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, it will face the resolute and overwhelming response of the ROK-US alliance and our military."

Senior Spokesperson Yang said, "There is only one path the Kim Jong-un regime can choose: to abandon nuclear development, integrate into the international community, and jointly build stability and prosperity," adding, "I hope they realize as soon as possible that joining the Bold Initiative is the best way to achieve peace on the Korean Peninsula."
