President 尹, “I will do it again if necessary” despite the controversy over the bias of the prosecution

President Yoon Seok-yeol said, “If necessary, we have to do it again,” despite the controversy over the bias of a senior prosecutor in the government.

In response to the remarks made by Kwon Seong-dong, floor leader of the People’s Power, one of the “Yun-Hak-kwan” on the morning of the same day, “President Yoon will not use prosecutors in important positions in the future,” he said, “If necessary, we should do it.” denied

He continued, “It’s absurd to call those who have been prosecutors like Kwon Young-se, Won Hee-ryong, and Park Min-sik for 20 years and who have served in three or four terms as prosecutors,” he said. If necessary, I will,” he added. Under the principle of ’employing competent personnel in the right place’, they reaffirmed their intention to hire even those from the prosecution, and expressed their will to overcome the controversy head-on.

Earlier, floor leader Kwon appeared on CBS Radio and said, “Yesterday, I talked to (President Yoon) on the phone and said that he would no longer hire a former prosecutor. Although these people were judges, their political careers were much longer than those of prosecutors. Counting and criticizing these people is a bit too much,” he said.
