Suh Hoon, former head of the National Security Office, clashes over arrest
On the 4th, former President Moon Jae-in expressed his feelings about the arrest of former Blue House National Security Bureau chief Suh Hoon due to the alleged cover-up of the incident of the attack on West Sea civil servants, saying, “It is very pity that the heritage of trust with a long history and years of experience has been broken.” People Power rebutted former President Moon, saying, “I want to avoid responsibility for myself in some way.”
In a statement posted on Facebook that day, former President Moon referred to Director Seo as the “best expert on North Korea” and said, “By establishing the best cooperative intelligence relationship between the United States and the United States, a close cooperation with the US States will overcome the North Korean nuclear and missile crisis in the early days of the Moon Jae-in administration and the Peace Olympics, which led to the North Korea-US summit and marked a major breakthrough for peace “, has explained.
It is the second time since the first that former President Moon has announced his stance on the prosecution’s investigation into the killing of a public official in the West Sea. Former President Moon expressed his disappointment with the prosecution’s investigation at the time, saying, “It’s a reckless act that neutralizes the security system” and “I hope you don’t cross the line.”
Yoon Kun-young, a member of the Democratic Party, who is known as an auditor for former President Moon, said on Facebook the day before: “Who would like to devote himself to his country in a situation where an arrest warrant is being requested only for political retaliation without any foundation?”
People Power stressed that former President Moon’s statement was “avoiding responsibility” and launched a counterattack. Chief spokesman Park Jeong-ha said, “Former President Moon praised former Chief Seo and criticized (the prosecution’s investigation). “I don’t understand why they are doing this,” he said, noting that “the killing of a public official in the West Sea is not enough to let an ordinary Korean public official die, but the state has stepped forward and manipulated and withheld data and called it an exodus from North Korea.” “Ex-President Moon’s overreaction to ex-chief Seo is interpreted to be because he wants to somehow avoid responsibility for himself by supporting ex-chief Seo,” he said. Please don’t cross the line,” he added.
Representative Kim Ki-hyun, the party’s runner-up, also criticized the Democratic Party’s claim of “political retaliation” on Facebook. Representative Kim stressed, “Revealing the hidden truth is political retaliation, and if the government trying to reveal how the mighty man led the people to death is a stupid government, we will take revenge and become stupid a hundred times a thousand times.” .
