Lee Cheol-hee, senior presidential secretary for political affairs, said, "It is my personal wish to become a president who leaves with applause when President Moon Jae-in stands at the door to resign."
In a telephone interview with MBC radio 'Kim Jong-bae's Focus' on the morning of today (16th), Chief Lee said, saying, "I think it is the 'Moon Jae-in effect' that President Moon's support for state affairs is around 40%.
“President Moon is an upright and kind president,” he said.
Some of the opposition parties have called for President Moon to leave the Democratic Party of Korea for fair management of next year's presidential election, calling it "a bad practice in the past."
Lee said, "In the past, there have been cases of resignation with the strategic intention of 'not to burden the ruling party for their own faults', but I think that it is not possible to do so." ", he emphasized.
In addition, yesterday, conveying a congratulatory message to presidential candidate Yoon Seok-yeol, he said, "President Moon is clearly determined to be neutral in the election, so please trust me even if you are worried."
"The president will also be impeached if he privatizes more than the power he has been given."He added, "I hope that our democracy will have trust in the level."
