삼성, 오바마 거부권 행사 안할 시 항고
삼성전자가 미국 국제무역위원회(ITC)가 자사 제품의 수입금지를 최종 판정한 것에 관해 버락 오바마 미국 대통령이 이 판정에 대해 거부권을 행사하지 않으면 항고할 방침이다.삼성전자는 “당사 주장이 받아들여질 수 있도록 법적 절차를 포함한 모든 조치를 취할 것”이라며 항고 방침에 대한 공식 입장을 밝혔다.규정상 제소당한 측은 특허를 침해했다고 ITC가 최종 판정을 내리더라도 이에 대해 곧바로 항고할 수는 없다. 대통령이 해당 최종 판정을 60일간 검토한 뒤 거부권을 행사하지 않기로 결정한 경우에 한해 피고 측 항고가 가능하다.오바마 대통령의 거부권 행사는 최종 판정 뒤 60일 후에 나올 예정이다.따라서 삼성전자가 항고를 하는 시기는 오는 10월 초가 될 것으로 예상된다한편, 국내 업계에서는 삼성전자 수입금지에 관해 오바마 대통령의 거부권 행사 전망을 살피고 있다.(영문: 김지현 코리아헤럴드 기자, 한글: 임우정 인턴기자)<관련영문기사>Samsung likely to appeal ITC

가수 비, 재입대 논란
2여년간의 연예병사 군 복무를 마치고 지난달 10일 전역한 가수 비(본명 정지훈)가 재입대 논란에 휩싸였다.비의 재입대 논란은 “필요 서류 누락으로 연예병사 선발 과정에 문제가 있었던 사람은 재입대를 하는 것이 맞다” 는 민주당 김광진 의원의 발언으로 불거졌다.비는 올해 초 복무기간에 국내유명 여배우 김태희와 데이트를 하던 중 복무규율을 위반한 바 있다.또한 그가 일반사병보다 많은 휴가 일수를 사용한 사실이 드러나면서 비난을 샀다.비의 재입대 발언으로 김광진 의원실에는 전화가 폭주하고, 공식 사이트가 다운됐다.이에 김 의원은 자신은 연예병사 선발 과정의 문제점을 지적한 것이지 비의 재입대를 주장한 것이 아니라고 해명했다.국방부는 “비는 적법한 절차에 따라 전역을 했다. 따라서 재입대를 논의할 법적 근거가 없다”며 비의 재입대 추진설을 일축했다.한편 국방부는 지난달 18일, 연예인 특혜로 많은 논란이 되어왔던 연예병사제도를 폐지했다.(임우정 인턴기자 / 코리아헤럴드)<관련영문기사>Di
