The issue of the return of former North Korean ambassador Jo Sung-gil to the National Assembly was controversial one after another in the National Assembly audit. While the opposition party raised suspicions of the government’s intentional leak, Minister Lee In-young denied the allegations and said he was investigating the details of the leak. On the other hand, North Korea has yet to comment on this incident. Reporter Hwang Hye-kyung reports. Following national supervision by the Foreign Ministry, the issue of the defection of former North Korean Ambassador Seong-gil came to the fore. The opposition party raised the possibility of an intentional leak, and the ruling party dismissed it as speculation that only adds to the confusion. Unification Minister Lee In-young said he did not know in advance that the defection of former Ambassador Cho would be revealed, and said he is investigating how related content was leaked. In addition, he said that former Ambassador Cho’s wife is demanding that he want to return to North Korea through the media. On the other hand, former Ambassador Cho, who is at the center of the controversy, has not yet come forward. While it is known that they are not taking any external action due to concerns about the safety of their daughters and families who remain in North Korea, the government is closely watching the impact of this incident on inter-Korean relations in the future. Previously, North Korea criticized Tae Young-ho as a criminal, saying, “Tae Young-ho is a criminal” three days after the government revealed the defection at the time of the defection of the British embassy. This is YTN Hwang Hye-kyung.
