North Korea held a meeting of the Labor Party Political Bureau on the 29th, the seventh day after the incident of the attack by a government official from the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries.
The issue of Corona 19 was discussed again at the meeting on the day when the President of the State Council, Kim Jong-un, met.
No mention of the incident of the attack on a public official of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries was not mentioned in the Labor News article announcing the meeting.
Compared to the Political Bureau meeting held in the past on Corona 19, the report of this meeting is characterized by being very brief without specific details.
Instead, there were key terms that attracted attention.
The Labor daily reported that “a series of deficiencies in the project to prevent the spread of malicious viruses were pointed out and relevant issues were discussed in depth to implement the national emergency quarantine project with greater intensity.”
Here, the focus is on what are the series of deficiencies that appear in the business related to Corona 19.
One of the biggest Corona 19-related problems in North Korea in recent years is the attack by a Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries official.
The reason the North Korean Navy shot and killed unarmed civilians and burned floating objects, which even revealed their intention to escape North Korea, is because it is observed to be related to the prevention of Corona 19.
It is known that the North Korean authorities established a buffer zone for the prevention of Corona 19 within the border zone 1 or 2 km last August, and issued a decree to unconditionally kill not only people who approach but also those who approach. animals.
The anti-human nature of this incident, in which an unarmed civilian was shot and killed at sea, was linked to the execution of his aunt, Jang Sung-taek, further exacerbating President Kim’s image of pursuing a normal state. .
It was also with South Korea that President Kim made an unusual apology on the 25th in a notice from the Unification Ministry Front, saying: “I am very sorry that something unexpected happened in our waters, adding to President Moon Jae’s great disappointment -in and the South Koreans. ” It can be interpreted as a measure that tried to take early measures, aware of the criticism that arises in the international community.
This is because it is difficult to provide a driving force for any dialogue in the international community, such as the negotiations on the denuclearization of North America, with the cruel image of President Kim highlighted by this incident.
Of course, the North Korean media complains about this case.
It appears that it would have been a burden to reveal the content of President Kim’s apology for this incident, as President Kim has solidified the South Korean front by completely blocking inter-Korean communication lines and blowing up the joint liaison office and promoting solidarity. between the people.
However, as President Kim defined this case as “unfavorable” in the notification, it is noted that it may have been mentioned and discussed as a deficiency at the party’s political bureau meeting.
North Korea is unlikely to accept President Moon Jae-in’s proposal for a joint investigation, but at least the procedure remains for informing the South of the results of North Korea’s further investigation and the search for the body.
It seems likely that this type of countermeasures was discussed at a meeting of the Party’s Political Bureau. Although the content of the meeting was not disclosed, internal action may have been taken on ‘gaps’.
The Labor newspaper said: “Organizational issues were discussed at the Political Bureau meeting.”
In particular, the newspaper said: “(This) Political Bureau meeting triumphantly celebrates the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Party as a true feast of the people, and triumphantly concludes the five-year strategy for national economic development despite the catastrophe and the unprecedented catastrophic crises By taking realistic steps to achieve this, it becomes an important opportunity to protect the well-being of the country and the people to the end and stabilize people’s lives.
Yang Moo-jin, a professor at North Korea Graduate University, said: “There is a strong possibility that we have discussed recent public officials that the issue of COVID-19 quarantine is the top priority. and we have checked the deficiencies. It’s hard to rule out the possibility of President Kim’s decision. ”
Professor Yang Moo-jin said: “The content of the decision is presumed to be the dismissal of the supervisor and the restoration of the West Sea Army communication line for a temporary period. There is also ”, he hoped.
