Shinhwa Communication Newsis“Especially nice to meet Japanese Prime Minister Suga.”
President Moon Jae-in attended the’ASEAN + 3 (Korea, China, Japan) ‘summit held by video at the Blue House on the 14th, and everyone started talking and greeting Japanese Prime Minister Suga Yoshihide. It is unusual to specifically mention a leader from a specific country at a multilateral conference attended by Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and more than 10 ASEAN leaders. It is analyzed that President Moon has shown willingness to advance relations amid the current underwater flow to improve relations between Korea and Japan, which has recently been broken.
President Moon met Prime Minister Suga three times at five summits related to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), which took place over four days starting on the 12th. Although it is a burn, it is the the first time since Prime Minister Suga’s inauguration in September that President Moon and Prime Minister Suga have gone head-to-head.
At the East Asia Summit (EAS), held on the same day as the ASEAN + 3 Summit, President Moon made two proposals for Japan. President Moon said: “First, it is multilateral cooperation in the field of quarantine health and medical care” and “I look forward to active support and participation so that we can protect the lives and safety of others through solidarity. and cooperation and laying the foundation for peace in Northeast Asia. ” “Second, I propose to closely cooperate with the Northeast Asia Relay Olympics, leading to Tokyo 2021 and Beijing in 2022, as ‘Quarantined Security Olympics.'” It means using the Tokyo Olympics in July next year as an impetus to improve relations between Korea and Japan and revive the peace process on the Korean peninsula, calling for active support for the Northeast Asia quarantined cooperation body that North and South, China and Japan proposed at the UN General Assembly in September. The Director of the National Intelligence Service, Park Ji-won, and members of the Korea-Japan Congress Union recently visited Japan to meet with Prime Minister Suga, and this time President Moon directly sent a message to Japan to restore relations. . The ruling party’s move is not unrelated to the observation that US President-elect Joe Biden, who values the alliance, will push for improved relations between Korea and Japan. Ahead of the monetization of domestic assets of Japanese companies, which has become a matter of time, it is a trend to find solutions to the problem of forced labor by expressing the will to improve relations between the leaders of Korea and Japan as the Declaration ‘Moon Jae-in-Suga’. Professor Won-deok Lee from Kookmin University said: “Clues to solve the problem will come out just by declaring that we will solve the problem through long-term legislative measures.” Democratic Party member Kim Jin-pyo, who interviewed Prime Minister Suga, held a meeting with a correspondent at a Tokyo hotel on the 14th. Let’s cooperate with the Olympics. However, Japan is in a position where Korea must first come up with a solution to conscription. A Liberal Democratic Party official close to Prime Minister Suga told Dong-A Ilbo: “It is possible that the Korean and Japanese leaders will declare a new vision only when the recruitment problem is solved. “The Maginot Line promises that the assets of Japanese companies will not be sold.”
