[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] Jeong Jin-seok, Emergency Response Committee Chairman of the People Power Party, stated on the 6th that "South Korea is surrounded by four North Koreas," pointing out that independent lawmaker Yoon Mi-hyang, who demanded the "halt of South Korea-US military exercises," is "a North Korea within South Korea."


On the same day, Chairman Jeong revealed this through social networking services (SNS), saying, "It has been 30 years since the declaration of withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in March 1993, and Kim Il-sung's nuclear gamble has finally succeeded."


He expressed concern, saying, "We thought that if we gave something in exchange, whether rice or oil, Kim Jong-il would give up nuclear weapons. That was a completely unrealistic idea."


He then directly criticized, "Another 'North Korea' exists within South Korea. A female lawmaker who was once with the Democratic Party and is now independent demanded the halt of South Korea-US military exercises on SNS but later deleted it." This refers to independent lawmaker Yoon Mi-hyang, who was expelled from the Democratic Party amid speculation of speculation.


Chairman Jeong expressed concern, saying, "(Lawmaker Yoon) wants to drive the US and Japan out of this land and protect South Korea," adding, "South Korea, surrounded by four North Koreas, is a truly bleak reality. Are we properly preparing for the security threats that put the lives of 50 million people at stake?"



He also evaluated China and Russia as "another North Korea." Regarding the recent third term of Chinese President Xi Jinping, he said, "With the launch of a unipolar system, the three-headed dictatorship of Stalin-Mao Zedong-Kim Il-sung has reappeared," and described "Putin, Xi Jinping, and Kim Jong-un as 'strongmen' who all threaten war."
