비공개 의총서 보고 거론·일각 수사 의뢰 주장도

(서울=연합뉴스) 최주성 기자 = 더불어민주당이 8·17 전당대회 과정에서 제기된 이른바 '신천지 개입설'과 관련, 신천지 교인들이 실제 당원에 가입한 정황을 확인한 것으로 13일 알려졌다.

복수의 당 관계자에 따르면 당 지도부는 최근 신천지 교인들이 집단으로 가입한 정황을 보고 받았다.

당 지도부는 이에 따라 의원 총회 개최 등을 포함해 후속 조치를 논의 중이다.

의원총회 시 비공개로 각 지역의 신천지 교인 가입 현황 등을 공유할 가능성이 있다.

일각에서는 신천지 교인들의 당원 가입에 대한 수사 의뢰 주장도 있으나 지도부는 신중 대응 기조라고 복수의 당 관계자는 전했다.

김 대표는 전대 직후 당원 정비 TF를 구성하며 박선원 최고위원에게 이중 당적, 유령당원, 비자발 입당 정리 등의 업무를 지시했다.

그는 지난 7일 그간 경과에 대해 "박 최고위원이 맡아서 조사했고, 그것이 일단락돼 어떤 식으로 공개할지 검토하는 것으로 안다"고 언급했다.

Byeong-do Han, “Cho Hee-dae gave a false explanation of ‘encouragement payment’ at the National Assembly… He should be put down from his position.”

Han Byeong-do, floor leader of the Democratic Party of Korea, said that the fact that Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Cho Hee-dae paid cash incentives to Supreme Court Justices and the Director of the National Court Administration was confirmed in the audit of government affairs by the Board of Audit and Inspection. He criticized this as a violation of the National Finance Act and an unprecedented incident in which the head of the judiciary mocked the legislature and deceived the sovereign people.

The Embassy in the US is in a battle over ‘diplomacy with the US’... “Can’t shake it” “Cracks the alliance”

During the National Assembly Foreign Affairs and Unification Committee's audit of the embassy to the United States, the opposition party criticized the cracks in the ROK-U.S. alliance for reasons such as disruptions in intelligence cooperation between South Korea and the U.S., while the ruling party countered that pending issues caused by changes in the Trump administration's foreign policy should not be defined as a crack in the alliance. Ambassador to the United States Kang Kyung-wha countered that he was aware of the problem and emphasized that the relationship between Korea and the United States is a deep and broad relationship that has developed into an alliance for over 70 years.
