Main opposition Democratic Party(DP) leader Lee Jae-myung criticized the Yoon Suk Yeol administration for engaging in political warfare when it should concern itself with the economy and bread-and-butter issues.

At a party Supreme Council meeting on Wednesday, Lee issued a warning to the administration, saying history and the people would not excuse abuses of authority.

DP floor leader Park Chan-dae lambasted the prosecution for indicting Lee on charges of breach of duty over Lee’s alleged actions as the Gyeonggi provincial governor, accusing the administration of political suppression and retaliation.

Park also slammed the ruling People Power Party(PPP) for slandering the DP chief as the PPP continues to oppose a special counsel investigation to get to the bottom of allegations against first lady Kim Keon-hee.
