Lee calls for unity at dinner meeting with DP leaders

President Lee Jae Myung gathered Democratic Party leader Kim Min-seok and floor leader Han Byung-do for a dinner meeting at Cheong Wa Dae, according to his office. Kim urged the government to implement decisive and prompt actions to address political divisions and stimulate economic activity, as reported by presidential spokesperson Kang Yu-jung.

Lee responded by emphasizing the necessity for the party and government to act in unison to enhance citizens' well-being and requested the National Assembly's continued backing for the 2027 budget proposal. Lee instructed chief of staff Lim Kwang-hyun and senior political affairs secretary Choi In-ho to maintain constant communication with the National Assembly throughout the process.

While some have speculated that sensitive topics like real estate taxes and allegations of fabricated indictments might be addressed, the meeting focused on fostering cooperation and support for the government's agenda.
