UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon could be a presidential candidate in his native South Korea in the next elections, a representative from the country's main opposition party says.
KWON Roh-kap, an adviser to the New Politics Alliance for Democracy, NPAD, said that confidants close to Ban had discussed the possibility of his candidature in the presidential elections scheduled for December 2017.
The UN leader, who will end his term with the international organisation at the end of 2016, would join NPAD and participate in the elections if he wanted, according to the Yonhap news agency, citing Kwon.South Korea's current president, Park Geun-hye, completes her five-year tenure in early 2018 and is not eligible to run for re-election under South Korean law.According to polls, Harvard graduate Ban, 70, is highly respected and popular among South Koreans.Ban served as the country's foreign minister in the government of Roh Moo-hyun, a highly progressive leader who was in office from 2003 to 2008.Both the presidents who succeeded Roh (Lee Myung-bak and current president Park) are conservative politicians of the Saenuri Party which has enjoyed support in a society increasingly divided between leftists and rightists.Experts believe that having an internationally renowned figure such as Ban could give the progressives the opportunity to regain power in Asia's fourth-largest economy.Anda sedang membaca artikel tentang
