I really believe in possibilities of an evolved approach to inter-Korean relations that reflects changes in SK & NK in the last 15 years, peace process built upon recognition of two different states... as I discussed with 어린이어깨동무 in an interview last July. www.okfriend.org/news/?idx=32...

Heard Korean commentators repeating the phrase 대한민국이 무너지고 있다, the ROK is collapsing. It is such an evocative expression that conjures for me images of pillars of government & S Korean statehood, constructed with such sacrifice over years, heaving under pressure & struggling not to succumb.

Han Dok Soo, after being reinstated, emphasized importance of obeying constitutional court & yet continues to defy them & impinge Nat. Ass. powers by not appointing Judge Ma Eunhyuk. Flagrantly defying constitutional court says what about the rule of law? They can't really stall until Apr. 18th?!

Peace processes don't invoke ontological insecurity as long as the story is 'got right' and fit ins with the biographical narrative!

Unlike Chun Du-hwan & Park Geun-hye, Yoon is trying to pass responsibility down to his subordinates and turn this into a political fight rather than a legal one to pressure the constitutional court becuase he knows the evidence against him is so compelling. Cowardly strategy sowing division & hate

PPP Seoul major Oh somehow tries to associate DP's inclusion of Yoon's alleged plan to provoke NK in special investigation bill with Lee Jae Myung kowtowing to China? Trying to show his viability to Jeon Kwang Hoon brigade?Or just exploit anti-China sentiment that exists for some in SK for his gain?

Only people wanting Han to not rubber stamp the appointment of those judges were the die hard PPP that are sticking by Yoon. And what is the PPP's proposal? Go with six judges into the impeachment trial. Then it only needs one judge disagreeing & the guy that saying 'shoot if you need to' maybe back

Han aligns with core pro-Yoon PPP politicians, requested a new consensus despite National Assembly already voting for 3 judges (how, where else to make consensus?) includes PPP's pick. Ignoring fact 'president' only rubber stamp this round of appointments decided by NA

노상원 전 정보사령관 수첩에 적힌 ‘엔엘엘(NLL·북방한계선)에서 북의 공격을 유도’란 표현은 윤석열 정부가 북한과의 군사 충돌을 유도한 뒤 이를 빌미로 비상계엄 선포를 하려 했다는 ‘북풍 공작’ 가능성을 한층 짙게 한다. 노 전 사령관이 12·3 내란사태의 배후 기획

Q: Maybe we should go for unconventional solutions & seek help from the 2-million-strong NK army? For eg, in exchange for our ”nuclear umbrella“ over half the Korean peninsula?
Putin: First of all, the DPRK has its own ”nuclear umbrella.“They didn't ask us for anything.
