문 대통령, 내달 1일 비상경제회의 주재... 3차 추경 논의

President Moon Jae-in will chair a session of the emergency economic council next Monday to discuss the government's proposed third extra COVID-19-related budget.
Another topic is South Korea's economic policy direction for the second half of 2020.
President Moon last chaired the council meeting about a month ago.
Over five sessions, President Moon unveiled stimulus measures worth some 80 billion U.S. dollars to help companies and people cope with the crisis.
His chairing of Monday's meeting is likely to show the importance of the extra budget,... and lay out the specifics of the so-called Korea New Deal.
