By Lee Hae-rin


The ruling conservative People Power Party (PPP) will send a delegation to Ukraine right after the June 1 local elections, the party said Monday. PPP leader Lee Jun-seok will lead the delegation.
여당인 국민의힘이 오는 6월 1일 지방선거 직후 우크라이나에 대표단을 보낼 예정이라고 월요일 밝혔다. 대표단 단장은 국민의힘 이준석 대표이다.


According to the party's press release, Monday, the delegation, tentatively called "the Korea-Ukraine special envoy in solidarity for liberty and peace," plans to visit the war-torn country in early June.
국민의힘 보도자료에 따르면, 대표단은 '한-우크라이나 자유·평화 연대 특별대표단'이 6월 초 전쟁으로 폐허가 된 우크라이나에 방문할 예정이다.


The delegation consists of its lawmakers, including Rep. Tae Yong-ho, a former North Korean diplomat to the United Kingdom who defected to the South and became a politician and Rep. Park Seong-min, the chief secretary to the party chairman.
이번 대표단에는 이준석 대표를 비롯해 영국 주재 전 북한대사관에서 탈북해 한국으로 건너와 국회의원이 된 태영호 의원, 박성민 당대표 비서실장 등이 포함됐다.


"The Korean people have felt sorry for the situation in Ukraine from deep down in their hearts, praying for an immediate peace," the party said in its statement. "The delegation will visit the Ukrainian people and deliver them consolation on behalf of the Korean people."
국민의힘은 보도자료를 통해 "최근 우리 국민들이 우크라이나 상황에 대해 마음 깊이 안타까워하고, 조속한 평화가 오기를 기원하고 있다"며 "이러한 우리 국민들의 염원을 담아 우크라이나 국민들을 뵙고 위로를 건네기 위해 방문할 계획"이라고 했다.


If the visit happens as scheduled, it will be the first official visit by a political party from an Asian country to Ukraine.
방문이 예정대로 성사되면 아시아 국가에서 정당이 우크라이나에 공식적으로 방문하는 것은 이번이 처음이다.


The delegation plans to have a face-to-face talk with key people in the Ukrainian government and visit hospitals and evacuation facilities.
대표단은 우크라이나 주요 인사들과 만난 뒤 병원과 피난 시설 등을 돌아볼 계획이다.


The exact date and itinerary of the visit are currently under coordination with the Ukrainian authorities.
대표단의 정확한 방문 날짜와 일정은 현재 우크라이나 당국과 조율 중에 있다.
