Former People Power Party Leader, YTN Radio Interview
"Dismissal of Lee Jae-myung's Arrest Warrant Greatly Affects General Election"

Former People Power Party leader Lee Jun-seok diagnosed on the 27th in an interview with YTN Radio's 'News King Park Ji-hoon' that the dismissal of the arrest warrant for Lee Jae-myung, leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, would affect the scenario of making Minister of Justice Han Dong-hoon a hero.


Former leader Lee Jun-seok said, "Isn't Minister Han Dong-hoon the one the Yoon Seok-yeol administration tried to make a hero through the purge political situation? But now this scenario has become somewhat unclear, which is the biggest loss of strategy."


Regarding the dismissal of the arrest warrant, former leader Lee Jun-seok pointed out, "Whether the charge of subornation of perjury can be established in a situation where there is insufficient evidence for the main crime is a legal question to consider, but from my perspective, no matter who attaches it, this inevitably raises the question of what the prosecution has been doing for two years."

Former leader Lee Jun-seok criticized the ruling party's criticism of the judiciary's judgment, saying, "During the injunction period of leader Lee Jun-seok, when they lost in the first round, they attacked the judiciary, then when they won in the second round, they said the judiciary made the right judgment, and now that Lee Jae-myung's warrant was dismissed, they say the judiciary is wrong again. How can such back-and-forth talk befit the ruling party?"


When asked whether the dismissal of Lee Jae-myung's arrest warrant would have a significant impact on the general election, former leader Lee Jun-seok predicted, "It will have a significant impact."



Former leader Lee Jun-seok analyzed that President Yoon Seok-yeol cannot avoid meeting Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the main opposition party.
