Han Dong-hoon, Jung Dong-young Clash Over 'Main Enemy' Term After Lunch Meeting

Independent lawmaker Han Dong-hoon held a luncheon meeting with Unification Minister Jung Dong-young on the 6th. After the meeting, Han stated that they confirmed their differing views on the concept of the 'main enemy,' how to refer to North Korea, and the transfer of wartime operational control.

Attention is focused on the background of why the government's stance of needing to cease confrontational language for peaceful coexistence and Han's argument of prioritizing security realities ran parallel.

Minister Jung's side stated that they had proposed this luncheon meeting, taking the opportunity of Han being assigned to the latter half of the parliamentary Foreign Affairs and Unification Committee.
