South Korea refused to return, North Korea welcomed
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.
South Korea tried to obstruct the repatriation project
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.
It is the right of citizens to return to their home country
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.
South Korean government refused to normalize diplomatic relations
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.
Abnormal situation in which one's own citizens are cut off
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.
Japanese repatriation project
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.
Japan's ongoing repatriation project
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.

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 launched its third missile test this year on the 14th, the missile falled outside Japan's EEZ.
Yesterday, the 14th, North Korea conducted its third missile test of this year. This ballistic missile appears to have flown approximately 400km and landedoutside Japan's EEZ. North Korea has frequently carried out provocations this year. The move is seen as retaliation for sanctions imposed by the United States on the 12th. Why doesn't North Korea stop its missile tests in the first place?
It is said that one in five people in North Korea is a military member. It is an army that protects the Kim dynasty. Kim Jong-un says the missiles are for the country's self-defense, but in reality they are nothing more than an army under a dictatorship. North Korea continues to suffer from chronic food and resource shortages. Even if the people starve to death, a large amount of national funds will be spent on missile development. It is easy to notice this contradiction when you consider how many people will be saved by the cost of missile development.
One in five people, or 20% of the population, are not engaged in production-related industries. If there is no war, the main jobs of military personnel are training and security. In other words, the remaining 80% will be the labor force that supports North Korea's GDP. 20% of the poor people are not engaged in production. Most of the North Korean soldiers are said to be malnourished. A North Korean soldier who escaped from Panmunjom to South Korea was shot multiple times from behind by North Korean soldiers and underwent surgery in South Korea, where a large number of parasites were discovered in his intestines. .
North Korea's economy is no longer at a level where it can run a country, and its soldiers do not have the stamina to carry out operations. This led to the development of low-cost nuclear missiles. No matter how many soldiers they feed, they no longer have the ability to conduct land battles.
North Korea will not stop nuclear missile tests for these reasons. There is no longer an option for the military to protect the country by stopping nuclear missiles.
Poverty in North Korea is caused by not working | Working population is too small - 20% of men do not engage in production activities
North Korea will continue to be poor. The reason is that it doesn't work. If you work, you will become a little richer. Come to think of it, there are some people who say they can't work because there are no jobs in North Korea, but don't be foolish. There will be jobs because there are people. Because your job is to help people. In other words, there is no work because you don't have that feeling or idea. In other words, the hopeless aspect of communism is that it lacks the concept of service.
It is said that 5% of North Korea's population are military personnel. If there were an equal number of men and women in the population, 10% of men would be military personnel. If you exclude children and the elderly from that number, I wonder if about one in five men are military personnel. In other words, these are people who do not engage in productive activities. 20% of working men do not produce. Even if people work in factories, leaders, section managers, and department managers are said to be in a class society where they don't work at all. In other words, even among people involved in production, those above a certain class do not work. College graduates and other elites are enthusiastic about manufacturing missiles that have no place in the North Korean economy.
North Korea has a primitive economy that is roughly equivalent to barter. Simply put, if you can exchange food and daily necessities, you are considered lucky. For example, when exchanging soap for a single radish, paper money is merely used as an intermediary. In other words, the general rule is that if there is a shortage of radish, there will also be a shortage of soap.
What will happen if we provide food assistance here? It does nothing economically other than to alleviate starvation for a certain period of time. This is because food is meaningless unless producers produce it and exchange it in the market.
In other words, North Korea is poor because it doesn't work.
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.
North Korea's current starvation situation is all spent on missile production. Existing Yi Dynasty Korea.
They live by getting their own food, whether it's birds or insects. It would be strange if humans starved to death. Despite being able to obtain food much more efficiently than animals. That happens often in North Korea. Because what the people earn will disappear somewhere. Transforms into a missile.
Kim Jong-un says it is to protect the people, but if the people are starving to death, the funds should be used to support the people's food supply and demand. There is no doubt that this is not to protect the people, but to protect the Kim Jong-un family. Even during the Joseon Dynasty, half of the population was slaves and there was no end to starvation. This is because the food that the people had cultivated had gone somewhere.
On the contrary, it is surprising that one in ten men in North Korea is a soldier. Of the total population of 25.97 million, 1.28 million are said to be military personnel. Moreover, this excludes the elderly and children, so the proportion is even higher when looked at within the working population. In other words, that many men are not engaged in society's productive activities.
Will North Korea's missile development solve this economically distorted social structure? Wouldn't nuclear missiles cost much less than military personnel? In any case, nowadays United Nations member states cannot attack other countries by interfering in their internal affairs. If nuclear missiles are deployed, the Kim dynasty will be strengthened. Korea will continue forever.
