[Asia Economy Reporter Naju-seok] The Democratic Party of Korea criticized on the 25th, "President Yoon Seok-yeol ultimately missed the last chance to apologize to the people and the National Assembly."


Oh Young-hwan, the Democratic Party floor spokesperson, said in a briefing that day, "Today, President Yoon Seok-yeol remained silent in response to the opposition party's demand for an apology and continued his 'solo policy speech,'" adding, "With one hand, he is engrossed in unprecedented political oppression aimed at eradicating the opposition party, and with the other hand, he talks about cooperation with the National Assembly. What a shameless president."


Spokesperson Oh pointed out, "It is President Yoon Seok-yeol who ultimately ignored the apology for his harsh remarks and disregard for the National Assembly, thereby giving up on the will to cooperate."


Regarding the budget direction, the Democratic Party also stated, "We cannot agree."


Oh said, "With over 1 trillion won allocated for relocating the Presidential Office, only increasing the burden on the ordinary economy, the desperate pleas of the people to revive the livelihood economy were met with a complete cut of the local currency budget and a reduction in public senior job programs," adding, "While driving the people's lives to the edge through tax cuts for the wealthy and cuts in livelihood welfare budgets, President Yoon was busy praising himself for taking care of the livelihood economy."

He said, "With the shameless and irresponsible attitude of the president, even the smallest hope for the Yoon Seok-yeol administration has disappeared," and "The Democratic Party firmly refuses to stand as a mere bystander to President Yoon Seok-yeol's irresponsible governance." He continued, "The Democratic Party will fight to the end against the Yoon Seok-yeol administration to protect democracy and the people's livelihood," and "We will fulfill the responsibilities entrusted to the National Assembly to block tax cuts for the wealthy and revive the ordinary economy."
