In politics, there is a fierce war of nerves between the ruling and opposition parties over the subject of the "insurrection independent counsel" investigation, that is, the contents of the independent counsel bill.
The People's Power said it would discuss its own amendment, saying it could not accept the opposition special prosecutor's bill that added foreign exchange charges, but the Democratic Party set the day, saying it was nothing more than a way to delay the conviction of rebellion.
Let's connect with the National Assembly reporter to find out more.
Reporter Kang Min-kyung, the People's Power will hold a general meeting of lawmakers this week to discuss the amendment of the Special Counsel Act?
[Reporter]
Yes, Park Hyung-soo, the deputy floor leader of the People's Power, held a press conference a little while ago.
It has announced that it will start internal discussions to propose an emergency martial law that limits the subject of the investigation in accordance with the purpose of the special prosecution system.
However, he explained that the proposal for the independent counsel law has not been fully decided, and that he will discuss the subject, subject, and whether to propose it at the general meeting of lawmakers tomorrow (13th).
The People's Power argues that even if the Special Prosecutor Act is proposed, the investigation should focus on about six hours from the declaration of emergency martial law to the lifting of it, and that the "foreign exchange crimes" included in the opposition Special Prosecutor Act should be deleted.
In particular, the Democratic Party is taking issue with the addition of the "foreign exchange crime," that is, the crime of secretly conspiring with foreign countries to threaten the existence of the state.
This is an imperial special prosecutor that can expand the subject of investigation indefinitely, and the ruling party believes that all efforts to curb North Korea's military provocations are foreign exchange crimes and that only North Korea does good things.
Initially, there were more skeptical views within the ruling party about the proposal of its own independent counsel law.
However, it is pointed out that we cannot continue to be dragged around by the opposition's special prosecution offensive,
It seems that the proposal of the independent counsel law has been strengthened as the judgment that the negative public opinion should be softened to some extent while preventing the presidential investigation unconditionally
.
Of course, some ruling party lawmakers continue to seem to expand their contact with strong supporters, so it will not be easy to overcome internal opposition over the special prosecution.

What is the position of the Democratic Party of Korea?
[Reporter]
Hwang Jung-ah, a spokesman for the Democratic Party of Korea, criticized the people's power for using a strategy to delay the conviction of rebellion by adding more conditions to the conditions.
In particular, he criticized that he would not conduct a special prosecution if he said he would run the special prosecution for six hours immediately after martial law, and that he admitted that the power of the people is a "civil war accomplice."
At a meeting of the party's "Fact Investigation Team on Foreign Exchange Attraction", President Yoon claimed that he tried to create a cause for emergency martial law by attracting foreign exchange by inducing North Korea's provocation of the NLL and planning to strike it from the ground up.
At the same time, he stressed that it is essential to add foreign exchange attraction charges when investigating the full extent of the emergency martial law declaration.
In this way, the Democratic Party of Korea is drawing a line on the six-hour investigation immediately after martial law, which is discussed in the power of the people, and calls for the removal of foreign exchange attraction charges.
In addition, the opposition party is sticking to its position that it will deal with the independent counsel's bill on the 14th and 16th at the plenary session at the latest, which includes the third recommendation.
Of course, as the final passage of the Special Prosecutor Act is more important, the Democratic Party of Korea has not closed the room for negotiation with the people's power at all.
Even if the people's power proposes a revised independent counsel law, it is highly likely that the Democratic Party will not accept it, so even if it goes into a negotiation phase later, severe labor is expected.
