Has the Democratic Party’s check begun? Cho Kuk’s proposal was virtually rejected… “The Presidential meeting is a meeting between the President and the Democratic Party.”

With a leadership meeting between President Yoon Seok-yeol and Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung scheduled, the Democratic Party appears to have rejected a proposal by Cho Kuk, leader of the Cho Kuk Innovation Party, to ‘hold a pan-opposition joint meeting before the summit meeting’. The Democratic Party drew the line, saying, “The meeting with President Yoon is a meeting between (President Yoon) and the Democratic Party.”

On the 24th, Democratic Party Chief Spokesperson Park Seong-joon met with reporters after the Supreme Committee meeting and said, “The leadership meeting is a meeting between (President Yoon) and the Democratic Party.” “If so, wouldn’t you then (next) have a meeting with representatives of other opposition parties, such as the Fatherland Innovation Party, the New Reform Party, the Progressive Party, the New Future Party, and the Basic Income Party?”

Chief Spokesperson Park added, “I think the President will also need a process of listening to the voices of various opposition parties.”

Previously, at the Jeonbuk general election victory report conference held in Jeonju on the 22nd, Representative Cho said to Representative Lee, “Please create and lead a joint meeting of representatives of the pan-opposition group,” and added, “If Representative Lee meets President Yoon as the representative of the pan-opposition group, the 175% won by the Democratic Party. It will represent 192 seats from the pan-opposition party, not just seats. “Representative Lee should become the representative of 192 seats,” he suggested.

Spokesperson Park’s remarks are the Democratic Party’s official response to Representative Cho’s proposal two days later. Even within the party, the position is that there is no need for a pan-opposition joint meeting before the leadership meeting at this time.

In a phone call that day, a Democratic Party official said, “Representative Lee is not attending the leadership meeting as a representative of the pan-opposition group,” and added, “When the 22nd National Assembly opens, a meeting between the pan-opposition groups will naturally occur.”

On this day, Spokesperson Han Min-soo also said on BBS radio’s ‘Jeon Young-shin’s Morning Journal’, “The content that Representative Cho proposed was not discussed at the official meeting,” and added, “I personally think that since the 22nd National Assembly has not yet opened, it would be a good time to see it before the leader-soo meeting.” “I wonder if it is possible,” he said.

Pro-Myung (pro-Lee Jae-myung) lawmaker Seong-ho Jeong said on CBS Radio’s ‘Kim Hyun-jung’s News Show’ the previous day, “At this stage, we are not at the stage to discuss in advance with Representative Cho’s Fatherland Innovation Party,” and added, “Representative Cho is not yet a member of the National Assembly. “Once the 22nd National Assembly is formed and its role begins when it comes to the National Assembly, we will have to talk, but we are not at that stage right now,” he said.

Rep. Jeong pointed out, “It is true that Representative Cho received considerable support from the public in this general election, but doesn’t the primary responsibility for running the National Assembly lie with the Democratic Party?”

Meanwhile, specific details such as the date and agenda of the summit meeting have not yet been decided. Spokesperson Park said that a second working meeting to discuss the summit with the president will be held this week. The first working meeting was held on the 23rd, but it was decided to hold it again after checking each person’s preparations.
