[아침신문 솎아보기] Kyunghyang, “Do you not know the North Korean nuclear diplomacy ABC?”

Newspapers published on the 2nd emphasized the rapid evolution of the president in response to the conservative opposition offensive, and pointed out that building a nuclear power plant in North Korea is possible only after denuclearization.

While the conservative opposition party is on the offensive that the government has pushed ahead with a plan to build a nuclear power plant in North Korea, President Moon Jae-in said on the 1st, “Do not retreat politics by encouraging confrontation with politics like relics of the old era that must be discarded in a situation where people’s livelihood is already difficult I hope” he said.

On that day, a senior Blue House official also met with reporters and criticized the opposition party’s claim of “transfer act” as “a political attacker who crossed the line, a color theory” and “an irresponsible incitement to the people who are not taxed.”

Earlier, the conservative opposition party claimed that the contents of the North Korean nuclear power plant were contained in a portable storage device (USB) that President Moon handed over to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un during the April 27 Panmunjom talks in 2018.

In the case of the Hankyoreh, he wrote that these’ideas’ had already been reviewed during the Kim Young-sam administration. On the other hand, the Chosun Ilbo and the JoongAng Ilbo saw that the documents related to the Ministry of Industry were’deleted’ as a problem again.

The Hankook Ilbo emphasized the president’s remarks on the front page, and picked the title, “Do not retreat from politics,” directly hitting Kim Jong-in, who directly embarked on the’nuclear attack’. The Hankook Ilbo said, “In such a situation, President Moon himself came forward because he believed that the opposition party’s suspicion would be quieted by more active defense.” “I was concerned that’fake news’ could harden like a pretense if silenced. I can see it.”

“The suspicion of the North Korean nuclear power plant construction project was excessively inflating the’idea’ dimension based on denuclearization, so it may have been judged that it is possible to respond aggressively because there is no substance.”

On the first page, the Kyunghyang Shinmun said, “It is a political offensive beyond the line, as if the government pushed forward the North Korean nuclear power plant construction document prepared by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy as an idea. ”

He added, “Under the tight international sanctions network against North Korea, it is impossible for the government to promote the construction of a nuclear power plant in North Korea alone without progress in the North Korean nuclear issue, and the opposition parties knowing this, they are compelling to argue ahead of the election.”

The Ministry of Industry and Industry disclosed the original text of the report on the’Promotion Plan for Nuclear Power Plant Construction in North Korea’, and in a six-page document, three plans and advantages and disadvantages of nuclear power plant construction in North Korea were listed. The Kyunghyang Shinmun emphasized, “At the beginning, it is stated that’this is an internal review data on possible alternatives in the future if the construction of nuclear power plants in North Korea is promoted, and this is not the official position of the government.”

In their editorials, Kyunghyang Shinmun and Hankyoreh pointed out that the offensive of the conservative opposition party is a problem over an unrealistic story.

The Kyunghyang Shinmun criticized the conservative opposition party, saying, “It is impossible to build a nuclear power plant in North Korea before North Korea’s denuclearization” in the editorial “I don’t know the North Korean nuclear diplomacy ABC,” the opposition party continues to offensive on the North Korean nuclear power plant.

The Kyunghyang Shinmun said, “The construction of nuclear power plants can only be accomplished after North Korea has returned to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) after denuclearization,” said the Kyunghyang Shinmun. “Even if denuclearization and joining the NPT, South Korea is a nuclear power plant that includes US original technology and licenses. In order to build in North Korea, an atomic energy agreement between North Korea and the United States must be signed,” he wrote.

In an editorial, the Hankyoreh said, “In fact, the provision of nuclear power plants to North Korea has been considered as a way to promote North Korean denuclearization and inter-Korean economic cooperation since the 1994 North-U.S. Geneva agreement during the Kim Young-sam administration. It is not a problem to look at the idea level,” he said. “There is no realization of the assumption that the government will break UN sanctions and build a nuclear power plant in secret without consultation with the US, which has the original technology for light water reactors.”

On the other hand, the Chosun Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo saw the fact that related documents from the Ministry of Industry were deleted as a problem.

In an article on the front page of the day, the Chosun Ilbo emphasized the fact that the Ministry of Industry released materials related to the’North Korean nuclear power plant construction document’ and that the document was deleted and re-released. JoongAng Ilbo also wrote in an article on the front page, “It is still questionable why government officials of the Ministry of Industry had to go into the office late at night before the audit and delete the internal review data in a pile.”

The Chosun Ilbo wrote in a related editorial on the 1st, the day before, saying, “If it’s a’public official’s review idea’, what is the need to sneak into the office and erase the data on the Sunday night just before the auditor’s investigation?” I didn’t write any related editorials.

The Chosun Ilbo and JoongAng Ilbo did not write an editorial on the 2nd, but the Dong-A Ilbo sees, “Are you doing that because of the election?” against the opposition party that raised the suspicion of the nuclear power plant in the editorial “The Minister of Unification, who poured out inappropriate remarks with a’personal’ clue? He also said that it was a’personal thought’. “The Minister of Unification can clarify the suspicion, but it is not appropriate to say’election use’,” he criticized the Unification Minister Lee In-young.

Judge Impeachment Proposal Initiation Jo Joong-dong “Trying to scare the judges” Seoul, South Korea “The judiciary should reflect on”

In addition, the Democratic Party initiated an impeachment prosecution against the head judge of the Busan High Court, Seong-geun Lim, who was involved in’Judongdan’ during the Park Geun-hye administration. 161 members of the Pan-Passport lawmaker were named on the bill of impeachment.

Deputy Judge Im, who has been subject to impeachment, is accused of intervening in the trial of former President Tatsuya Kato, former head of the Sankei Shimbun, Seoul, who was accused of defamation after writing a column on the “Seven Hour Suspicion of the Sewol ferry” by former President Park Geun-hye.

Newspapers said, “It is an atmosphere in which the impeachment of judges for the first time in the history of the constitution is visible,” and the number of cosponsors of the Democratic Party alone exceeded the majority of the enrollment, which is the requirement to vote on the impeachment bill.

The Chosun Ilbo, Dong-A Ilbo, and JoongAng Ilbo saw the impeachment of a judge as an attempt to scare judges critical of the government. On the other hand, the Seoul Newspaper and the Hankook Ilbo point that impeachment is appropriate.

In an editorial, the Dong-A Ilbo wrote, “There is a controversy over whether it is a’significant violation of the constitution’, and controversy about the effectiveness of impeachment for retired persons at the end of February and taming the judiciary have been raised.” I can’t finish it. What might be the reason for making an unreasonable impeachment to no avail? It is only to scare the judges.”

In an editorial, the JoongAng Ilbo, “Is Judge Lim done something that deserves impeachment? “The answer may be different depending on your perspective and perspective,” he said. “The group of people doubts the intentions of the Democratic Party lawmakers. Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol’s decision to annul the disciplinary action, Gyeongnam Governor Kim Gyeong-soo convicted, Prof. Kyung-Shim Chung in court, and Choi Kang-wook representative of the Open Democratic Party sentenced to imprisonment (suspension of execution).

On the other hand, the Seoul newspaper said, “Rather, the National Assembly is moving belatedly and is being criticized for’taming the judiciary’.” “The judiciary must devastately reflect on and reflect on the situation in which the impeachment proposal was initiated this time.” The impeachment procedure was late, but it was considered appropriate.

In an editorial by the Hankook Ilbo, “I was convicted of being acquitted as the vice-president judge was not guilty of ex officio abuse, but it is stated in the judgment as’unconstitutional act’.” “Why dismissing such a judge is taming the judiciary, why the Democratic Party “Can you explain the power of the people whether they are pressing the judgment that is favorable to the government?”

The Chosun·Dong-A Ilbo criticizes KBS in the process of increasing license fees

While KBS is going through the process of raising the license fee, the Chosun Ilbo and the Dong-A Ilbo are heavily reporting articles containing critical tone about KBS.

First, on the 2nd, the Dong-A Ilbo posted news on the front page that KBS’s license fee adjustment plan includes the installation of a Pyongyang branch office. The Dong-A Ilbo said, “When KBS made a plan to increase the license fee, it was found that it included the content that an additional budget of 2.8 billion won was needed for the establishment of the North Korean Pyongyang branch and designation of the’unification broadcasting host broadcasting company’.”

In the license fee adjustment plan, it is stated that “social confusion occurs frequently due to inaccurate reporting related to North Korea” and “Pyongyang branch office needs to be opened for more accurate and objective reporting of facts”. It is reported that a total of 2.82 billion won has been added for research services for the identification of the broadcasting host broadcasting company.

The Dong-A Ilbo also published a reporter’s column on page 33 titled’To obtain public consent for a fee increase’, and said, “While accusations continue over the issue of fairness, which can be called the life of public broadcasting, while the presumed employee criticizes the lazy workforce. He pointed out that he is posting a sarcastic article online to the public and is buying upset.”

At the end of the column, he pointed out the labor cost problem of KBS and wrote, “If you do not overcome the labor cost structure and constant fairness disputes that are almost equal to the subscription fee, KBS’s promotion of the license fee increase will continue to be neglected by the public.”

On the 5th page of the Chosun Ilbo, the article “Extracting dozens of government and North Korean criticism articles from the KBS announcer’s’news at my own pace’” and pointed out how announcer Kim Mo’s news proceedings raised by the minority union, KBS Labor Union.

The Chosun Ilbo criticized the management of KBS in an editorial on the previous day, “30% of KBS employees have a billion-dollar annual salary for unemployed jobs, and this is the case”.
