與’Bulgari theory’ vs 野’Bulgari theory’ confrontation
In the conversation on the 2nd anniversary of President Wen’s inauguration, he made a statement on the purpose of’considering amnesty when confirming the sentence.
President Moon Jae-in will hold a ‘2021 New Year Press Conference’ at the Blue House on the 18th and reveal the direction of state administration for the fifth year in office. As the two former presidents Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye have been confirmed to meet the requirements for amnesty, President Moon is expected to give an answer to the amnesty in some way at a press conference on the day. As for whether or not to pardon the pardon, as well as the pros and cons diverge sharply, there are observations that President Moon can only reveal his principle position on the pardon at a press conference and conclude by observing the trend of public opinion.
○ 文, time of decision to pardon D-2
This press conference, which will be held for 100 minutes from 10 am on the 18th, will be held in the form of online and offline video connection in consideration of social distancing due to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19). According to the Blue House, President Moon is known to devote himself to preparing for a press conference during the weekend without setting an official schedule. President Moon’s press conference has been around a year since last January.
The biggest concern of this press conference is the issue of amnesty for the two former presidents. President Moon is known to have been contemplating the amnesty without mentioning it to the staff until now after Lee Nak-yeon, the leader of the Democratic Party, brought out the pardon on the 1st. An official at the Blue House said, “In the end, the decision is up to the president,” and “President Moon will struggle over the weekend.” Earlier, President Moon said in a talk on the 2nd anniversary of his inauguration on May 9, 2019, “Because he is my predecessor, he is the most painful and burdensome than anyone.”
In particular, the Blue House is paying attention to the fact that there is a lot of negative public opinion on amnesty. A passport official said, “It is important to achieve policy results in the fifth year of office.” “In a situation where there are many issues that need to be addressed right away, such as real estate issues and employment shortages, it will not be easy for President Moon to make a decision on amnesty right now. I said. Accordingly, it is observed that in the first half of the year, after President Moon concentrates on overcoming Corona 19 and solving the problems of public welfare, it is only possible to review and implement the amnesty in earnest in the second half. A Blue House official said the day before, “It is not appropriate to comment on the amnesty as soon as the Supreme Court sentence is issued.” A high-ranking official from the ruling party also said, “It is not easy to decide on an amnesty immediately after Park’s sentence is confirmed.” “The possibility of a pardon on the basis of consolidation remains open, but there is also a possibility that the actual pardon will be executed at the end of this year after a cooling period of public opinion. I have.” Former President Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo were sentenced in April 1997, and former President Kim Young-sam issued a special pardon in December of that year.
○ 與, “You must not buy without national consent” vs. 野, “For the future and integration, a decision to pardon is necessary”
The opposition parties continued to clash over the slopes. In the Democratic Party, the ambition of amnesty seems to be gaining strength. Rep. Park Joo-min said on MBC radio that day, “national consent has no choice but to pardon former President Park. It is unreasonable to have to pardon in the absence of it.” Rep. Seol-hoon also predicted on YTN Radio, “(President Moon) at a press conference on the 18th will likely say that it is not something that can be done now.”
On the other hand, Rep. Kwon Seong-dong, who served as the chairman of the former president’s impeachment prosecution committee, said on MBC radio, “Because the investigation of the two former presidents cannot rule out the aspect of political retaliation, a politician for future politics and unity rather than division or hate politics. It is necessary,” he said, “I am looking forward to President Moon’s political decision.” Rep. Ha Tae-gyeong of the same party also said at CBS Radio, “I think that the current public opinion will be pardoned within this year to receive the evaluation of historically good performance, and to prevent the president’s misfortune and vicious cycle from repeating.” .
