Nak-Yeon Lee “Respecting President Wen’s will regarding the remission of the former president”

-= President Lee Nak-yeon, the leader of the Democratic Party, said on the 18th that President Moon Jae-in expressed a negative position regarding the amnesty of former presidents Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye, saying, “I respect the will of the President.”

Lee, who raised an amnesty against the two former presidents, answered the question of how he viewed President Moon’s press conference at a meeting with reporters at the National Assembly that day.

Earlier, at a New Year’s press conference held at the Blue House, President Moon said, “The fact that the two former presidents are now in prison is very unfortunate nationally. In addition, they both drew a line on the amnesty theory, saying, “But now is not the time to speak of amnesty.”

Representative Lee left to schedule a visit to Gwangju after briefly watching President Moon’s New Year press conference at the National Assembly that day. Representative Lee will visit the May 18 Cemetery in Gwangju and prevent Bishop Kim Hee-jung, the head of the Catholic Archdiocese of Gwangju. Lee said, “I visited a traditional market, which is suffering very much because a corona 19 confirmed person came out. I have met the religious leaders, and one of them is in Gwangju and I will see you.”
