Chungnam Provincial Council People Power Party "Democratic Party Must Stop Unilateral National Assembly Organization"
People Power Party members of the Chungnam Provincial Council have called for the nullification of the Democratic Party's unilateral organization of the 22nd National Assembly.
On the 18th, they held a press conference at the Chungnam Provincial Council, stating, "The Democratic Party pushed for the unprecedented unilateral organization of the standing committee chairpersons," and criticized, "This undermines the spirit of cooperation and harmony in the legislature and is a direct challenge to the people and democracy."
They continued, "The National Assembly should stop the fruitless disputes and focus on the lives of the people," urging, "The Democratic Party should immediately nullify its unilateral and autocratic organization and engage in cooperation."
They added, "If the Democratic Party refuses cooperation in the National Assembly, it is expected to face difficulties in cooperation within local councils as well," emphasizing, "We will closely monitor the Democratic Party's National Assembly organization situation and actively respond during the future organization of the Chungnam Provincial Council."
Lee Sang-geun, the floor leader of the People Power Party, said, "The organization of the 22nd National Assembly is not proceeding smoothly, causing concern among the people. We held this press conference believing that the council has a responsibility to gather opinions and convey them to the National Assembly," and added, "We hope the Democratic Party cooperates with the People Power Party to transform the National Assembly of the Republic of Korea into one that does not worry the people."
