The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy released the original text of the report on the’North Korean nuclear power plant construction promotion plan’ reported by SBS that the prosecution stated in the complaint that it was a document deleted by officials of the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. It was found that it was the same document that was deleted, but remained on another computer in that department of the Ministry of Industry.
The Ministry of Industry said in the’Disclosure of documents related to North Korean nuclear power plant construction documents’ on the evening of that day, “In consideration of the public interest value of ending unnecessary controversy even though it is a case currently being tried, the original documents will be released after deliberation and resolution by the Information Disclosure Deliberation Committee.”
The Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy stated that “after the first inter-Korean summit on April 27, 2018, this data was reviewed at the idea level in case the inter-Korean economic cooperation will be activated in the future, and it was concluded without any additional review or disclosure to the outside. “This issue has not been promoted by government policy, and the claim that the nuclear power plant was built in North Korea is not true.”
In the public prosecutor’s office released by SBS, the Ministry of Industry and Industry put a list of 530 files deleted by the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Industry said, “As a result of confirming, there are 174 data from the previous government and 272 data from the current government. There are 21 documents and 63 non-document data (jpg, etc.). “For the 17 files exemplified as North Korean nuclear power plants, the data prepared by the Ministry of Industry are’North Korean nuclear power plant construction promotion plan’ and’Energy sector. “Inter-Korean Economic Cooperation Experts” are identified as two, and the rest of the data are identified as KEDO-related public data and a list of experts, promoted since 1995.”
What was the contents of the’North Korean nuclear power plant construction promotion plan’ disclosed by the Ministry of Industry?
Looking at the data released by the Ministry of Industry (report)’Promotion Plan for Nuclear Power Plant Construction in North Korea’, this report jointly constitutes a decision-making body with foreign countries such as the US and Japan, and the project promotion organization is composed of TFs in which relevant ministries in South Korea participate. They mentioned the need to review different implementation systems depending on whether they participated, how they were financed, and whether or not the nuclear power plant was connected to denuclearization measures.
The report primarily reviews the’Kedo site (Kumho district, Hamgyeongnam-do)’ based on the location of the North Korean nuclear power plant, but stated that it is possible to use other areas in North Korea or South Korea, such as the DMZ, depending on other factors of consideration. “OPR1000 (KEDO) APR1400 (Shingori units 5 and 6, APR+ (no results), smart (no results)).” The report is the first proposal to build APR1400 in the Kumho district and APR+ in the DMZ as the second proposal. The proposed plan and the plan to transmit the third plan to North Korea after the construction of Shin Hanul Units 3 and 4 were proposed.
As a review opinion, the report said, “If the disposal of spent nuclear fuel in North Korea is premised, it is persuasive in terms of the time required, project cost, and consistency of energy conversion policy in South Korea.” However, the current content and level of North American denuclearization measures Accordingly, the uncertainty is very high, and there is a limit to the derivation of specific plans at this time.” The report added, “At the time when denuclearization measures are materialized and nuclear power plant construction becomes visible, additional review of the implementation system and detailed implementation plans is necessary.”
‘How does the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy have the deleted document, is it correct that it was deleted?’
If you look at the crime list no.517 attached to the prosecution’s indictment released by the SBS report, there is a file called ‘180515_Promotion of nuclear power plant construction in North Korea _v1.2.hwp’ (path: old file60 Pohjois 1 Bowonchu ) Was deleted by the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Amugae Kim (detention prosecution) on December 2, 2019 at 01:16:30.
SBS reported in a report on the 28th of last month, “If you look at the deleted files in detail, two versions of the’North Korean nuclear power plant construction promotion plan’ folder were deleted from the’North Cone’ folder, which seems to be an abbreviation for’North Korean nuclear power plant promotion plan’. In the folder, the files’Step-by-Step Cooperation Tasks for Establishing North Korean Electric Power Infrastructure’ and’North Korean Electric Power Industry Status and German Integration Case’ have been deleted.” SBS wrote, “I inquired about the process of creating these files and the reason for deletion, but the Ministry of Industry has revealed that it is difficult to answer because it is an issue under prosecution investigation.”
The problem is that the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, who was prosecuted, deleted the file, but why did the Ministry of Industry disclose the same file as’the original text’? This means that there are separate files deleted by the secretary and separate files from the Ministry of Industry. If so, there is no real benefit, but it is questionable why it is deleted. The Ministry of Industry said at the end of last year that it had already discovered that the same file as the deleted one was on a computer other than the deleted one. Since the prosecution has all been seized and searched, the question arises whether the secretary would have known that there was another file that was identical to the deleted file after restoring the deleted file.
A senior official from the Ministry of Industry said in a phone call with Media Today on the night of the 1st, “(the secretary) himself deleted the file, but I know that the same file as the file was found inside the Ministry of Industry.”
An official in the nuclear power plant policy office of the Ministry of Industry said, “The file released today was found by looking at the extension name of one of the deleted files.” Not all files in. I only deleted it on one computer, and other computers have the same data in addition to the deleted computer.” However, he said it was not appropriate to answer how and on which computer. It is explained that what was deleted is a file on a computer other than the one restored by the prosecution.
When asked whether the same file as the deleted file existed, the official said, “I learned when the last Chosun Ilbo report (looked as an article in November last year) came out.”
When asked if the prosecution had confiscated and searched all computers with the same file, he replied that “all other computers have been done.”
Earlier, Money Today was the afternoon of the 1st[단독]The North Korean nuclear support document is just in the Ministry of Industry.. Concealment claims are manipulated’ article first reported this fact. The media wrote, “The six-page “North Korean nuclear power plant construction promotion plan” report stated in the prosecution’s complaint is kept on the internal computer network of the Ministry of Industry. Money Today, an official from the Ministry of Industry said, “Recently, a broadcaster reported the contents of the complaint and disclosed the list that the public officials deleted. The same document as the file recovered by the prosecution,” he reported.
