The following is a continuation of the previous chapter.
Kim Jong-un and Moon Jae-in share one heart.
The goal of the far-left forces is nothing other than a red unification with the Kim Jong-un regime through a federal system.
During the Roh Moo-hyun administration, Moon Jae-in led pardons for public security offenders who sought a federal red unification and attempted to abolish the National Security Law.
Last October, he declared that he would “revise the constitution and undertake a fundamental transfer of state functions to local authorities.”
This is an attempt to weaken Seoul’s capital functions in preparation for a “low-stage federal system.”
The Moon Jae-in administration, influenced by Juche ideology, is abolishing the National Security Law that protects the constitution and state structure, and is advancing the early dissolution of the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces Command.
It is a strategy to complete regime change and move toward a federal system.
Furthermore, last December Moon Jae-in visited China and stated that South Korea and China are a “community of shared destiny.”
This can be regarded as a declaration of departure from the U.S.-ROK alliance and grounds for additional impeachment.
However, the coup called the “Candlelight Revolution” has not yet been completed.
