While the Democratic Party of Korea held a plenary session at 2 p.m. on the 4th and announced that it would elect the Speaker of the National Assembly alone, negotiations to form a circle between the ruling and opposition parties are struggling until this morning. People’s Power proposed to amend the Judicial Reform Special Committee proposed by the Democratic Party to an equal number of opposition parties (5 to 5), but the Democratic Party rejected it. The opposition and opposition parties are in a position to leave the possibility of negotiations open until the plenary session, but if differences are not resolved, lameness is expected to be inevitable.
Kwon Seong-dong, floor leader of the People’s Power, said, “The Democratic Party rejected the proposal to block the enforcement of the private special committee.” It can only be decided by mutual agreement,” he said. In response, Democratic Party floor leader Park Hong-geun said, “The election of the Speaker of the National Assembly has no choice but to be handled at the plenary session today.”
