Song Young-gil: "If We Unite with the Yoon Resignation Party, 200 Seats Are Possible"

"Useless Salesperson Must Be Fired"
"Policy Alliance with Lee Jun-seok... Let's Fight Together"

Former Democratic Party leader Song Young-gil, who announced plans to create a proportional representation party called the so-called 'Yoon Seok-yeol Resignation Party (tentative name)' for next year's general election, stated, "I think there is a need for those who hope for Yoon Seok-yeol's resignation and are fighting at the forefront to come together and form a Resignation Party."

On the 4th, on BBS Radio's 'Jeon Young-shin's Morning Journal,' former leader Song said, "If we consider the Japanese colonial period, just as the Korean Independence Party was necessary to fight for independence, the current Yoon Seok-yeol administration is undermining this country's competitiveness, so this is the most important task."

Former leader Song mentioned the failure to host the Busan Expo, saying, "Busan lost to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, by 119 to 29. Isn't that too much?" He emphasized, "The prosecutorial dictatorship regime is not only about human rights oppression but also economically incompetent. If a regular company salesperson did such a thing, the owner, the people, must dismiss such an incompetent salesperson."

He said, "Under the single-member district system, if the opposition is divided, votes will be split, allowing the People Power Party to gain an unintended advantage. In the constituencies, we should unite behind competitive Democratic Party candidates, and in the proportional representation area, unite behind the Democratic Party's affiliated party, tentatively named the Yoon Seok-yeol Resignation Party, so both can win. We can secure more than 200 seats," he argued.

Regarding claims that former leader Song, who is under prosecution by the prosecution over allegations of money envelopes, is aiming for 'protection' through the creation of a new party, he rebutted, "I went to the prosecution office twice on my own to say, 'Investigate me first,' and 'If you want to arrest me, do it.' Where would I go?"

About his announcement to form an alliance with former leader Lee Jun-seok's new party, he explained, "I am not in the same party as him. However, the 'anti-Yoon (Ban-Yoon) alliance' means fighting through policy cooperation," adding, "As former leader Lee said, there are many specific policy points where we agree, such as opposing the removal of General Hong Beom-do's statue and opposing the indictment for insubordination against Colonel Park Jeong-hoon."
