South Korea’s Opposition Leader Proposes Talks with President on People’s Livelihood

According to CCTV News, Lee Jae-myung, leader of South Korea’s largest opposition Democratic Party, once again proposed a one-on-one meeting with President Yoon Seok-yue on the 29th to discuss people’s livelihood and other topics.

Li Zaiming issued the above proposal through social media on the same day. He wrote that he hoped Yin Xiyue could participate in the talks without any strings attached and discuss topics such as people’s livelihood and national affairs candidly. He also called on both sides to suspend political disputes at least before the regularly scheduled congressional session in December and focus on solving people’s livelihood issues.

New data released by the Statistics Korea show that South Korea’s consumer price index (CPI) rose 3.4% year-on-year in August, the highest increase in four months. Among them, fruit prices increased by 13.1% year-on-year, and water, electricity and gas prices increased by 21.1% year-on-year.

Lee Jae-myung said that if the two can meet, it will be a signal of South Korea’s “economic recovery” and “I hope the president can make a far-sighted decision.”

On the 18th of this month, South Korean prosecutors requested the arrest of Lee Jae-myung on charges of dereliction of duty and bribery, and Yin Xiyue agreed. The South Korean Congress voted to approve this request on the 21st, but the Seoul Central District Court rejected the request on the 27th and ruled not to approve the arrest.

Since Lee Jae-myung became the leader of the Democratic Party of Korea in August last year, he has repeatedly proposed one-on-one meetings with Yoon Seok-yue, but the other party failed to agree.
