[Financial News] Kim Yong-tae, the emergency response committee chairman of the People Power Party, stated on the 27th regarding the unification with Lee Jun-seok, the presidential candidate of the Innovation Party, "If the Innovation Party expresses that they have no intention of unifying, we need to respect that will."
Chairman Kim met with reporters at the Westin Chosun Seoul in Jung-gu, Seoul, on this day and said, "We are confident that candidate Kim Moon-soo can win even in a three-way race."
Chairman Kim stated, "We have discussed various possibilities and reiterated that unification was not a political engineering thought as mentioned by the Innovation Party," adding, "Citizens across the country are asking us to stop Lee Jae-myung's dictatorship."
Furthermore, Chairman Kim said, "Nevertheless, if the Innovation Party mentions personal anecdotes of politicians and says they cannot unify, we will respect that will as well," emphasizing, "However, to stop Lee Jae-myung's solo run, many citizens will judge who is the most reliable candidate with their votes. Only Kim Moon-soo can lead the Republic of Korea."
