Democratic Party blasts presidential candidate after he suggests scrapping 2018 inter-Korean military agreement
Pyeongyang Press Corps | ROK Minister of National Defense Song Young-moo and North Korean Minister of the People’s Armed Forces No Kwang Chol shake hands after signing an inter-Korean military agreement while South Korean President Moon Jae-in and DPRK leader Kim Jong Un applaud in the background, Pyongyang, Sept. 19, 2018
Conservative South Korean presidential candidate Yoon Seok-youl would return the Korean Peninsula to the “fire and fury” tensions of 2017 if he wins, progressive Democratic Party (DP) lawmakers alleged on Thursday.
The accusation comes after Yoon said in an interview with the Seoul-based Kookmin Ilbo newspaper the previous day that he may scrap the Sept. 19, 2018 inter-Korean military agreement if North Korea continues to violate the deal with repeated missile tests.
