North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un has apologized to the South Korean administration for killing a South Korean official and stressed that it was a “shameful” incident that should not have happened, reports BBC News.
Kim Jong-Un sent a letter to South Korean President Moon Jae-In, apologizing for the incident. “I understand the pressures and difficulties associated with the efforts to overcome the pandemic crisis. I wholeheartedly share the pain and suffering of the South Korean people over the shameful incident,” Kim Jong-Un said, according to the South Korean presidency. Kim Jong-Un’s apology is a rarity.
A 47-year-old South Korean national, a Department of Fisheries official, was shot dead by North Korean authorities after entering a boat in North Korean territorial waters. The body was reportedly burned, indicating that North Korean authorities have received strict orders to stop the spread of the coronavirus. Pyongyang claims that the body was not burned, but only the boat.
Seoul authorities believe the man was trying to flee to North Korea, but the family denied this.
