Attention to President Moon’s response to Yoon Dang-seon-in’s MB pardon proposal

North Korean missiles, etc., seem to rise on the agenda… Will the ‘corruption investigation’ be a sensitive issue?

(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lim Hyeong-seop Kim Yeon-jung and Park Kyung-jun = President Moon Jae-in and President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol will hold their first meeting after the presidential election on the 16th, and interest is focused on whether the ‘salvation’ of both sides can be partially resolved.

In the case of Yoon-elect, the prosecutor-general appointed by President Moon directly, but eventually leading the change of government as an opposition presidential candidate, etc.

At the beginning of the administration, it seemed like they were on the same boat, but the relationship between the two sides has crossed a river of no return after going through the national crisis and the presidential election.

In particular, it seems that the emotional gap between President Moon and President-elect Yoon has deepened during this presidential election, so there are many expectations that an awkward current will flow in the meeting hall.

If any mention of the so-called ‘corruption investigation’, in which President Moon directly demanded an apology from President-elect Yoon, comes out, the atmosphere can freeze in an instant.

It will be the first time in 21 months since President-elect Yoon attended the Anti-Corruption Policy Council held at the Blue House in June 2020 as the Prosecutor General.

Looking at past cases, most of the meetings between the incumbent president and the elected president took place within ten days, except in 2017, when the government was impeached.

Although both sides say there is ‘salvation’, they did not delay the meeting in particular.

Among the agenda items expected to be discussed at this meeting, the issue of special amnesty by former President Lee Myung-bak is also attracting the most attention.

With the observation that there may be a special amnesty at the end of next month or early May ahead of Buddha’s Birthday (May 8), it is known that President-elect Yoon will propose a special amnesty for former President Lee to President Moon at this meeting. Noted.

In the political arena, there are observations that President-elect Yoon would “recommend” an amnesty, whether President Moon would accept it. Some members of the Democratic Party also expressed the opinion that an amnesty was necessary.

Countermeasures against corona virus and measures to support small businesses are also expected to appear on the table.

In the case of President-elect Yoon, when he was a candidate, he made promises such as ‘open 24 hours (for restaurants and cafes)’ and ‘completely abolition of quarantine pass’, so there is a possibility that there will be a broad discussion in the direction of easing quarantine guidelines. is mentioned

Compensation for small business owners and the self-employed may also be included on the agenda.

In addition, it is expected that discussions will take place on diplomatic and security issues, such as the trend of North Korea’s intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launch.

Director-General of the National Security Office Suh Hoon visited President-elect Yoon on the 12th and briefed on North Korea-related trends, such as North Korea’s recent missile test and launch.
