In addition, Ahn Cheol-soo, a lawmaker from the People's Power Party, who criticized Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung, said, ”Impeaching Acting President Choi Sang-mok is an act of national subversion...We will have to pay the price” (South Korea)

On the 21st, Ahn Cheol-soo, a lawmaker from the ruling People Power Party, commented on the impeachment motion brought by five opposition parties, including the Democratic Party, against Acting President Choi Sang-mok.
"Without a president or a prime minister, are they trying to get rid of the economic command center? If so, what kind of economy and people will be left in this country?
"Who is responsible for this?" Rep. Ahn wrote, "The impeachment of Prime Minister Han Deok-soo caused foreign capital to flow out like a tide, and the won-dollar exchange rate dropped to 1.5 times that of the previous year.
The rate has approached 1,500 won (about 153 yen). Choi has managed to prevent a second IMF crisis, but is he now trying to destroy that last barrier?
) Both sides questioned the Democratic Party leader, asking, "Are you out of your mind?" He continued, "At this point in time when Trump's second term is inaugurated and diplomatic and economic issues between the United States and South Korea, such as tariffs, subsidies, and security, are piling up, South Korea is in a position where the president
"We are experiencing a golden time for diplomacy with neither the head of state nor the prime minister in the country. If it shakes even the economic control tower, who can stop this wave of chaos?" he added.
"What's even more shocking is that in the midst of all this, CEO Lee met with Samsung Electronics Chairman Lee Jae-Yeong.
"The point is that he is talking about 'growth' in public. He is deceiving the people by destroying the economy in public while shouting about growth behind closed doors. This is the height of double standards," he said.
Rep. Ahn said, "The purpose of this impeachment attempt is clear. It is a political shield to protect Lee himself from judicial risk, and is a violation of Article 84 of the Constitution (the president cannot be impeached).
This is nothing more than a political calculation to interpret the law (which provides immunity from criminal prosecution while in office except for crimes of civil sedition or foreign exchange) in a favorable light. Such irresponsible and unethical politics will inevitably come at a price.
We will have to pay," he criticized.
