North Korea launches missiles again and falls outside Japan's EEZ
At a press conference after ９ a.m., Matsuno said, "North Korea fired a ballistic missile on the morning of June ３０ and reached a maximum height of about ２,０００ kilometers, which is believed to have fallen outside Japan's EEZ= exclusive economic zone."Chief Cabinet Secretary Matsuno said, "North Korea fired a ballistic missile eastward from the interior of North Korea around ７:５２ a.m. today.We are currently investigating the details, but if the missile is a normal trajectory, it is estimated that it flew about ２,０００ kilometers high, ３０ minutes long, and ８００ kilometers away from Sea of Japan's exclusive economic zone."
Regarding Matsuno's remarks to reporters that the launch was "high-intensity," a senior Foreign Ministry official said, "I think that's what he said about the missile.In other words, the threat is growing.North Korea is likely to resume ICBM= intercontinental ballistic missile tests or nuclear tests in the future, as it seems to be launching various missiles on a trial basis."
The insight of Lawmaker Rui Matsukawa
The other day, Matsukawa, a former defense parliamentary secretary, replied, "North Korea has a clear target point, and I think is just proceeding with the plan there."Kim Jong-un is trying to build a North that will protect the Kim Jong-un regime forever, and if other countries criticize the missile launch, he will respond with provocations.Matsukawa's statement may be closer to the truth because nothing will change after the U.N. Security Council sanctions resolution.
POINT North Korea may just be using criticism from other countries as a diplomatic strategy.You should think that they will not stop until they reach the target point of nuclear and missile development.

real estate fraud by Kim Jong Un In the past, there was a real estate bubble in North Korea.Real estate worth more than 20 million yen is not affordable to the people of that economic level of communist country.North Korea is always short of foreign currency, and the underground economy is the foundation of North Korea's economy.On the surface, large amounts of money are flowing into foreign products and DVDs that are considered illegal.
More than half of the high-end villas in Heungmu-dong, Peony Peak, Pyongyang, were found to be empty, and Kim Jong-un held a state-led auction.At the time of the auction, the authorities ordered that the source of the money and the background of the successful bidder be independent.Since there is no need to worry about money from the black market, elite officials from 11 agencies that procure, research, and analyze nuclear and missile development parts from abroad participated in the auction, raising the purchase price to 23 million yen. by National Leaders
Two years later, at the end of 2019, Kim Jong Un suddenly announced that he would provide new luxury apartments to executives of 11 stations, and ordinary employees would be given apartments in the middle and new apartments in Mangyeongdae would be given to section chiefs.No one can refuse to provide Kim Jong Un with an apartment.They gave up luxury villas one after another and moved to a new apartment.Of course,at the past almost half of the rooms were empty, so no one could buy them even if real estate prices continued to fall.
Kim Jong-un sold high-end villas to elite executives at auction and transferred them to poor-quality new apartments and deposited the difference into the national treasury.Real estate prices have fallen by one-tenth since 2021, with the government ordering the eradication of private transactions in state-owned housing.

Biden administration sanctions Russia and North Korean individuals for North Korean missile launch on the 11th.
[Washington, 12th Reuters] --The US Treasury will impose sanctions on 6 North Korean individuals, 1 Russian individual, and 1 group following a series of missile launches by North Korea on the 12th. Announced. He is said to have been involved in the procurement of weapons development supplies from Russia and China.
According to South Korean troops, North Korea launched a projectile that could be a ballistic missile on the 11th. This is the second time North Korea has launched a projectile this year since the 5th. In addition, North Korea's state-run Korean Central News Agency reported on the 12th that it succeeded in conducting a hypersonic missile launch test in the presence of Kim Jong-un, the chairman of the Workers' Party of Korea. Kim Jong Un has officially inspected the missile launch since March 2020.
The Ministry of Finance explained that the sanctions were aimed at preventing the advancement of North Korea's weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and ballistic missile programs, as well as stopping attempts to spread weapons technology.
Nelson, Under Secretary of Finance (Terrorism and Financial Information), said in a statement that North Korea is taking measures against the use of foreign representatives to illegally procure products for weapons, and North Korea's recent missile launch is "international. Further evidence that banned programs continue to move forward despite society's demand for diplomacy and denuclearization. "
"The events of the last few days underscore our belief that dialogue is needed to make things happen," US State Department spokesman Price said in a regular press conference, and the U.S. government continues to work with North Korea. He said he was aiming for diplomatic negotiations.
The ministry accused the sanctions of being the result of six ballistic missile launches since September last year, all of which violated a UN Security Council resolution. did.
It is said that one Russian-based North Korean national, one Russian national, and one Russian group, which were subject to sanctions, conducted "activities and transactions related to the spread of weapons of mass destruction and their means of transportation." I was determined.
One of the North Korean nationals is a representative of the North Korean organization involved in weapons development in Vladivostok, and is said to have been involved in the procurement of communication-related equipment from Russia.
In addition, four representatives of the agency's China branch and one Russian-based North Korean have also been sanctioned. He was involved in the procurement of alloy steel, software, and chemical products.
Anthony Ruggero, a sanctions expert from the former Trump administration, said the new sanctions were a "good start" and that the Biden administration needed to continue to increase sanctions pressure on North Korea. It pointed out.
This measure will freeze the sanctioned US-related assets and completely ban transactions with the sanctioned person.
The point of interest is sanctions on individuals. We knew that Russian engineers were involved in the development of North Korea's nuclear missiles, but we are trying to identify individuals.
North Korea's NATA (National Aerospace Technology Administration) is very similar to NASA - why make it look like it to compete with the United States? And it's English.
This is the official logo design of North Korea's National Aerospace Technology Directorate. If you think it's similar to something, it's NASA in the United States. The North Korean side is NATA. When I looked it up, it seems that NATA is the acronym for National Aerospace Technology Administration. This was also reported in Japanese media.
Kim Jong-un's daughter Jue appeared at the venue wearing a T-shirt with this mark printed on it, and all the male executives who greeted her were also wearing this T-shirt. It's a very North Korean-like scene, but by the way, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) seems to be an acronym for National Aeronautics and Space Administration.
In North Korea's logic, they would argue that they did not copy NASA, but simply used the name of North Korea's agency, and would they say that the design was inspired by space? No matter how you look at it, it just looks like a NASA fake.
North Korea is now excited that it has successfully launched a satellite. Japanese media has also reported that the threat has increased, but it was in 1970 that Japan placed its first artificial satellite into orbit around the Earth. North Korea is supposed to be making missiles to counter the United States. By the way, North Korea uses Hangul as its national script, and like South Korea, it has abolished the kanji that it had historically used for a long time. It's a very strange country.
The South Korean government says it has reached a basic agreement to end the Korean War, but there is no such fact.
The South Korean side's recent insistence on an agreement in principle between the United States, China, and North Korea to end the Korean War appears to be referring to an armistice agreement. The agreement stipulates that the two countries ``guarantee a complete cessation of acts of war and all use of force in Korea until a final peace settlement is reached.''
This interpretation is that the armistice agreement means a temporary cessation of the use of force toward a peaceful resolution, and that an agreement in principle has been reached toward an end to the war.
Section 13(d) of the Armistice Agreement stipulated that North and South Korea should not bring new weapons to the Korean peninsula, other than to redeploy damaged or worn-out equipment, but the United States abolished this. In 1958, the nuclear-armed MGR-1 and M65 280mm cannon were deployed to South Korea, and a year later they were joined by the nuclear-armed MGM-1, which had China and the Soviet Union within range.
In 1975, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution supporting the replacement of the Armistice Agreement with a peace treaty and the dissolution of the United Nations Forces.
In 1987, President Ronald Reagan refused talks toward a peace treaty, citing the Korean Air Incident.
In 2009, North Korea announced that it considered the armistice agreement no longer valid.
The Armistice Agreement appears to be in a state of abandonment, and the current situation is not a truce under the Armistice Agreement, but rather a state that has not yet led to war.
In March 2018, Xi Jinping called for a ``new security framework'' with the United States that would include a peace agreement among the four countries: the United States, China, North Korea, and South Korea, but former US President Trump did not indicate his approval or disapproval.
In April 2018, U.S. President Trump welcomed South Korea's intention to convert the armistice into a peace agreement at the inter-Korean summit. Moon Jae-in and Chairman Kim Jong-un agreed to actively promote trilateral talks between the South, North Korea, and the United States, as well as four-party talks between the South, North Korea, the United States, and China, aimed at building peace.
As a matter of fact, no basic agreement has been reached by the four parties. If I had to say it, we only agreed on the direction based on the interpretation of the Armistice Agreement. An agreement comes with agreed terms.
First of all, it is necessary to agree on the conditions, but there is no such agreement.
In fact, the Armistice Agreement has become a mere shell, and the interests of the signatory countries have changed. It would be better for the US and Russia to leave North Korea as a buffer zone.
Once the two countries, North and South, conclude a peace treaty, that will be the end. I find it strange that the situation can't be done between the two countries because of the armistice agreement. Rather, it seems like they are asking for help because they are unable to have dialogue between the two Koreas.
Is there any meaning in a peace treaty in a relationship where dialogue is impossible?
When you ask Koreans this question, the majority of them are of the opinion that a peace treaty cannot be concluded without the consent of the signatories of the Armistice Agreement. Both South and North Korea are independent states, so it is possible to conclude treaties between the two countries.
Why did the Zainichi issue arise? South Korea refused to return home and the issue of residents in Japan will remain forever.
South Korea refuses to return, North Korea welcomes return
South Korea tried to obstruct repatriation project
It is the right of citizens to return to their home country
South Korean government refused to normalize diplomatic relations
An abnormal situation in which one's own citizens are cut off
Japanese repatriation project
Japan's ongoing repatriation project
The project to repatriate Koreans residing in Japan after the war was pushed forward despite opposition from the South Korean government. North Korea has declared that it will pay for the cost of the ship to return home. He said he would welcome acceptance.
Many of the people who came to North Korea from Japan were postwar immigrants who came to Japan after fleeing the Jeju April 3rd Incident and the Yeosu-Suncheon Incident in South Korea. The repatriation project was carried out jointly by the Japanese Red Cross Society and the Korean Red Cross Society.
The South Korean side opposed this repatriation project, extended the detention of Japanese fishermen, cut off trade relations, sent terrorist agents, attempted to bomb the Niigata Japanese Red Cross, and sabotage plans were revealed one after another. It was revealed that plans included the assassination of Japanese personnel involved in the repatriation project and the bombing of railway tracks heading to Niigata Port.
South Korea opposed the repatriation project because it received international criticism for refusing to return and North Korea accepting it.
Mass repatriation will only be possible if the governments of both countries cooperate with those who wish to return home, based on the humanitarian principle of international law, which is the freedom to choose their place of residence. Furthermore, post-war disposal is based on the aim of restoring things to their original state.
The Japan-Korea Status of Forces Agreement was concluded in the 1965 Agreement. When Japan raised the issue of how to repatriate Koreans living in Japan when diplomatic relations were normalized, the South Korean government again refused. In response to this, an agreement was reached that allowed them to reside in Japan, which was the Japan-Korea Status of Forces Agreement.
In other words, the Korean government has cut down and abandoned its own people. As a result, it was North Korea that supported the Korean Peninsula residents who remained in Japan. To this day, Korean schools continue to receive support from North Korea. As a result, Chosen Chongren and Korean schools became North Korean.
This is not an ordinary country's decision. This is an abnormal situation in which Japan refuses to allow its own citizens to return. Incidentally, Japan's repatriation project was carried out with the cooperation of the Japanese and Chinese governments.
The repatriation of Japanese people from Manchuria began in 1946, with more than one million Japanese returning from ports in China. After the Communist civil war, the People's Republic of China and Japan were forced to suspend diplomatic relations, and the mass repatriation was ended. After the normalization of diplomatic relations between Japan and China, the removal of orphans left behind in China began in 1981, and more than 2,000 children were able to return to Japan.
Remaining orphans were forced to walk for tens of kilometers and were not allowed to stop their march, as the departure time and number of crew members for the ship were set when the Japanese were to be evacuated. Many women and children were unable to walk and were separated from their families, becoming Chinese wives through human trafficking or being adopted.
Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare still provides temporary repatriation assistance, permanent repatriation assistance, local settlement support, and self-reliance assistance.
