The NIS said the briefing came at a recent order from President Moon Jae-in who stressed the importance of information sharing with the parliament, saying there can be no "ruling or opposition parties when it comes to national security."
The NIS chief, Suh Hoon, was also scheduled to brief Vice Speakers Shim Jae-chul of the main opposition Liberty Korea Party and Park Joo-sun of the liberal opposition People's Party on Tuesday, it added. (Yonhap)
