Kim Moon-soo, the former Minister of Employment and Labor, whose official candidacy was said to be revoked, has been reinstated as an official candidate, causing confusion to spread within the ruling party.
韓国では来月3日に行われる大統領選挙に向けて10日から立候補の受け付けが始まり、▽革新系の最大野党「共に民主党」の公認候補のイ・ジェミョン(李在明)前代表や、▽少数政党の代表を務めるイ・ジュンソク(李俊錫)氏が届け出を行いました。
In South Korea, candidate registration for the presidential election to be held on the 3rd of next month began on the 10th. Lee Jae-myung, the former leader and official candidate of the largest progressive opposition party, the Democratic Party of Korea, as well as Lee Jun-seok, who serves as the leader of a minor party, have submitted their candidacies.
一方、保守系の与党「国民の力」は、今月3日にキム・ムンス前雇用労働相を公認候補に決定しましたが、党内では、世論調査で支持率が高い「共に民主党」のイ前代表に対抗するため、無所属での立候補を表明していたハン・ドクス(韓悳洙)前首相との一本化を求める声が強まりました。
On the other hand, the conservative ruling party People Power Party decided on former Minister of Employment and Labor Kim Moon-soo as its official candidate on the 3rd of this month. However, within the party, there have been increasing calls to consolidate the candidacy with former Prime Minister Han Duck-soo, who had announced his intention to run as an independent, in order to compete with former leader Lee of the Democratic Party of Korea, who has high approval ratings in opinion polls.
こうした中「国民の力」は10日、キム前雇用労働相の公認を取り消すと発表し、ハン前首相を入党させ、新たな公認候補にするための手続きを進めました。
In this context, on the 10th, the People Power Party announced that it would revoke former Employment and Labor Minister Kim’s nomination, admitted former Prime Minister Han to the party, and proceeded with procedures to make him the new official candidate.
そして党員投票を行いましたが、「国民の力」の幹部は10日夜、公認候補の変更案は反対多数で否決されたと明らかにしました。
We held a party member vote, but on the night of the 10th, executives of the People Power Party announced that the proposal to change the official candidate was rejected by a majority opposing it.
これによりキム前雇用労働相が一転して公認候補に復活することになり、11日午前中に立候補の届け出が行われる見通しですが、選挙戦を前に与党内では混乱が広がっています。
As a result, former Minister of Employment and Labor Kim is expected to make a comeback as an official candidate, with his candidacy likely to be filed on the morning of the 11th. However, confusion is spreading within the ruling party ahead of the election campaign.
