, ‘Chief Supreme Council Member Kim also stated during the Supreme Council Meeting at the National Assembly in Yeouido, Seoul, that “Choi Sang-mok and Ahn Deok-geun, who have arrived in the U.S. for the tariff negotiations, have clarified that any agreement should be made by the new government and that the acting government will cautiously proceed with substantial negotiations and preliminary consultations.” He added, “Acting President Han should not undermine the negotiation team by pressuring them for a hasty negotiation and conclusion for his own political gains.”‘,
,
, ‘Kim further mentioned, “The true nature of greedy ambition is being revealed, differences within the negotiation team regarding Acting President Han’s hasty agreement policy have emerged, the shabbiness of the unremarkable recommendation committee is evident, and the possibility of refusal for a unified candidate in the People Power Party’s primary has increased.”‘,

, ‘Additionally, Chief Supreme Council Member Kim addressed Kwon Seong-dong, Floor Leader, asking, “When will you apologize for assaulting a female reporter?” and stated, “No matter what you say, all I can think of is the scene of the assault.” He continued, “Do not disgrace the National Assembly any further,” demanding, “Apologize if you committed an assault.”‘,
