President Moon Jae-in said at his New Year’s address on the 11th, “I will do my last efforts to achieve a great turn in the halted North Korean-US dialogue and inter-Korean dialogue. It is interpreted as an expression of determination to do its best to create a dialogue phase on the Korean Peninsula again in line with the inauguration of the US administration of Joe Biden (on the 20th). President Moon also said to North Korea, “I hope to open the waters of’win-win and peace’ in response to the corona.” I hope this can be together.” It is read as a message to expand the contact surface between the two Koreas through quarantine cooperation and joint response to the spread of Corona 19. President Moon continued, “Corona cooperation can be expanded through cooperation on issues directly related to the safety and survival of the people of the South and North, such as livestock epidemics and natural disasters,” he said. “As cooperation expands, we will take a step toward unification. You can go ahead step by step,” he added. However, since President Moon’s proposal for cooperation in quarantine has already been a matter that North Korea has expressed reluctance, it is questionable how effective it will be. Labor Party General Secretary Kim Jong-un said at the 8th Labor Party Congress recently, “Currently, the South Korean authorities bring out non-essential issues such as quarantine cooperation, humanitarian cooperation, and individual tourism, giving the impression that they are interested in improving North-South relations.” In his New Year’s speech, President Moon also said, “The core driver of the peace process on the Korean Peninsula is dialogue and win-win cooperation.” “Our will to meet anytime, anywhere, and to talk in a non-face-to-face manner remains unchanged.” Clearly stated. He said, “If we draw support from the international community while jointly implementing all the agreements between the two Koreas so far, especially’no war’,’to ensure mutual security’, and’shared prosperity’, “The door to’peace, security, and life community’ centered on’will open wide.” It also emphasized the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula. President Moon said, “This year marks the 30th anniversary of the two Koreas joining the United Nations at the same time.” “The South and the North must work together to prove that peace and prosperity on the Korean Peninsula will also benefit the international community. “The Korean Peninsula of peace without war and nuclear weapons is our duty to be passed down to the people and descendants.” Byungsoo Park, senior reporter [email protected]
