이원택 전북특별자치도지사는 오세훈 서울시장이 2036 하계올림픽 공동 개최에 긍정적인 반응을 보인 7일 입장문을 내고 "하계올림픽 유치를 위한 국제 경쟁력 강화 방안에 대해 서울시와 지속해 협의해 나가겠다"고 밝혔다.
이 지사는 "오늘 오 시장이 (취임 100일 기자간담회를 통해) 올림픽 공동 개최에 대한 입장을 밝혀왔다"며 "실무진 차원에서도 보다 구체적인 사안을 협의할 것"이라고 강조했다.
이날 오 시장은 서울시청 간담회에서 "전북이 공동 개최를 요청하면 마다할 이유가 없다"며 "어떤 형태의 제안을 해오더라도 공동 개최 모양새가 될 텐데, 다 수용할 생각"이라고 말했다.
다만 "국제올림픽위원회(IOC) 입장에서 판단해야 한다"며 "공동 개최 시 서울과 전주를 2∼3시간 걸려 왕복하면서 대회를 치르는 것을 IOC가 선호하느냐의 벽에 부딪히게 된다"고 우려했다.
또 "선수촌, 기자촌을 어디 만들 거냐 이런 것을 가장 중요한 요소로 (IOC가) 판단할 텐데, 구체적 실행계획이 전북 측으로부터 나와야 한다"고 공을 넘겼다.

![[3rd report] 'Myeong Tae-gyun public opinion poll': imprisonment → not guilty... “It’s not a political donation.”](/api/img?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimg.yna.co.kr%2Fetc%2Finner%2FKR%2F2026%2F10%2F07%2FAKR20261007120351004_01_i_P2.jpg&w=320&q=72&f=webp)
The 7th Criminal Division of the Seoul High Court found former President Yoon Seok-yeol and political broker Myung Tae-gyun not guilty on charges of violating the Political Fund Act. The court overturned some of the guilty verdicts in the first trial, ruling that the opinion poll provided by Myung Tae-gyun could not be considered a financial benefit and that the intention to donate was not proven.

At the briefing session on the 'K-GX Signature Project', a Korean-style green transition (K-GX) strategy and private investment plan, on the 7th, President Lee Jae-myung emphasized that the green transition is a clear future strategy to secure international competitiveness and protect the people's lives and homes from climate crisis. He explained that the climate crisis has become a reality that threatens the survival of humanity, and that carbon trade barriers are rising and foreign companies are demanding carbon reduction, citing heat waves in Europe and the glacier collapse disaster in Nepal as examples. He also said that it is essential to dominate the green market, and urged that we must break away from the practice of being a follower and become a designer and leader of the green market.

Minister of Unification Chung Dong-young assessed at the National Assembly audit on the 7th that there was a risk that the buffer zone regulations between South and North Korea could be neutralized due to North Korea's 'border fortification' work, and expressed his stance that he would work closely with the United Nations Command to respond.

In the National Assembly's Foreign Affairs and Unification Committee's audit of the Ministry of Unification, opposition party members' criticism and Unification Minister Chung Dong-young's explanation clashed with the government's response to the DMZ landmine explosion and its holding North Korea responsible.

Kosovo's parliament voted to limit the powers of its Specialist Chambers war crimes court in a last-minute session that avoided governmental collapse. The amendment, negotiated to secure opposition support for electing Justina Shiroka Pula as president, would restrict the court's jurisdiction to postwar crimes inside Kosovo, limit sentences to 15 years, allow incarceration in Kosovo and enable presidential pardons. The changes do not affect existing sentences for four former KLA leaders, including ex-president Hashim Thaci, who were convicted last month for war crimes during the 1990s independence struggle.

The civic group Korea Sovereignty Defense Headquarters additionally accused President Lee Jae-myung of being a traitor in connection with the mine explosion incident in the Demilitarized Zone, and announced that former Minister of National Defense Ahn Gyu-baek and current Minister of National Defense Shin Cheol were also included in the list of accused.
