North Korea Calls for All Koreans to Surrender to Kim Regime Demands
Kim Jong-un may not have exactly told Koreans to surrender to his demands, but that is essentially what is being said in this statement:
North Korea sent a rare announcement addressed to “all Koreans at home and abroad” on Thursday, saying they should make a “breakthrough” for unification without the help of other countries, its state media said.
It said all Koreans should “promote contact, travel, cooperation between North and South Korea” while adding Pyongyang will “smash” all challenges against reunification of the Korean peninsula.
The announcement, issued after a joint meeting of government and political parties, added Koreans should wage an energetic drive to defuse the acute military tension and create a peaceful climate on the Korean peninsula.
Military tension on the Korean peninsula was a “fundamental obstacle” for the improvement of inter-Korean relations and unification, the North’s official news agency said.
It added joint military drills with “outside forces” has shown to be unhelpful for the development of relations between North and South Korea. [Reuters]
This message makes it pretty clear that the Kim regime wants the inter-Koreans ventures such as the Geumgang Resort tours and Kaesong Industrial Complex reopened as a means for foreign currency and to circumvent sanctions. That is why the Masik Ski Resort is being promoted so heavily as part of the Winter Olympics charm offensive by the North Koreans. They see that resort as another potential cash cow to circumvent sanctions.
This message also continues the Kim regime’s efforts to separate the ROK and the US by demanding joint military exercises be cancelled. I would not be surprised if the ROK government asks to cancel the already delayed Key Resolve exercise.
Well there’s JU’s long game… Tip their head down, throw up the hoodie and sprint to global WMD capabilities. Once there, use it as a means to lure the RoK to them with promises of full protection and unification with nuclear might at their back pushing Juche into the future.
“NORTH KOREA CALLS FOR ALL KOREANS TO SURRENDER TO KIM REGIME DEMANDS”
Ho-hum.
Call in one hand, shít in the other, and see which one fills up first.
South Koreans prefer burgers over tree bark and dramas over propaganda.
Once North Korea works that out, there might be a chance.
If Moonie calls Key Resolve and UFG then he’s definitely the Manchurian Candidate.
The current South Korean president want to reunify at all cost, willing to sell out 50+ million citizens to do it.
