President Lee Says South Korea Still Seeks to Reunify with North Korea

Reunification of the Korean peninsula at this point will only happen on the terms of the Kim regime in North Korea. The Kim regime will never agree to reunification on the South’s terms:

 President Lee Jae Myung said Sunday reunification with North Korea remains South Korea’s ultimate goal and a constitutional duty, vowing to pursue it through dialogue rather than unilateral action.

Lee, in Johannesburg for the Group of 20 summit, made the remarks in a written interview with Turkey’s Anadolu Agency, published ahead of his state visit to Ankara.

“Reunification remains our ultimate goal and is not merely an ideal but a constitutional duty. Our government will not pursue reunification through a unilateral approach,” Lee said in the translated interview. 

“Our government seeks gradual and phased reunification through peaceful coexistence and mutual development, reflecting the democratic will of all people on the Korean Peninsula,” he added.

You can read more at the link, but as long as the Kim regime remains in power there will never be reunification “reflecting the democratic will of all people on the Korean Peninsula” when there is no democracy in North Korea. If Lee really wanted reunification he would be working to undermine the Kim regime and sustain it. The ROK had its chance 20-30 years ago to seek reunification on their terms and instead the Korean left pushed the Sunshine Policy that sustained the Kim regime and led to the nuclear threat they now face.

There is a lot of negitivity out there about Korean reunification.

But if we look more closely, the Korean government is taking clear and productive steps towards that goal.

– Remove and jail any anti-communist South Korean nationalist presidents

– Don’t allow any publicity or complaint about Chinese influence

– Dismantle DMZ loudspeakers formerly broadcasting capitalist propaganda

– Use an excuse (like the flu) to destroy small business capitalism and its middle class petty bourgeoisie

– Inflate prices on food, energy, and housing but keep wages the same… then offer state-sponsored stimulus and subsidies to offset this. Design this system to increasingly rely on the state to even participate.

How can so many fail to notice reunification is clearly underway.

I look forward to this exciting time.

I am studying the wisdom of Marx and the glorious history of our future Dear Leader from the time the Tiger gave birth to him at Baekdusan until his skillful management in conquering the puppet lackey running dogs.

I will be traveling around to the various means of production to instruct the proletariat on the finer points of this history.

See ya at the turnip farm, suckers.
