At the beginning of 2024, the situation on the Korean Peninsula further heated up, North Korea fired a number of coastal artillery, and a large number of people in South Korea fled urgently. North Korea's move has further exacerbated tensions on the peninsula at a time when Kim Jong-un has just characterized South Korea as hostile. North Korea faced high provocations from both the United States and South Korea, and in order to defend itself, North Korea had to take counter-action actions.
Although relations between the two Koreas have been unstable, North Korea's characterization of South Korea is extraordinary. On January 1, North Korea's supreme leader, Kim Jong-un, said that inter-Korean relations had changed from ethnic relations to completely hostile ones. Such a statement is rare and confirms North Korea's strong anger and resentment toward South Korea. After that, North Korea fired a large number of coastal artillery shells on the 5th local time, and the firing area was close to the economic towns of Yeonpyeong Island and Baeknyeong Island, causing local residents to take emergency shelter and cancel flights. These moves by the DPRK have caused panic and vigilance within South Korea, and the situation is dangerous and uncontrollable.
In the face of the escalation of tension on the peninsula, Chinese spokesman Wang Wenbin said on the 5th that China hopes that all parties concerned will remain calm and restrained, avoid further escalation of the situation, and create conditions for the resumption of dialogue. As an important neighbor of the Korean Peninsula, China aims to maintain peace and stability on the peninsula by calling for calm and restraint to calm down tensions.
China is highly concerned about the tense relations between the DPRK and the ROK, not only because of the stability of Sino-DPRK relations, but also because China has always adhered to the principle of peace and stability and does not want to see the Korean Peninsula plunged into the abyss of war again. China's spokesman Wang Wenbin's remarks show that China advocates the peaceful settlement of the Korean Peninsula issue and is willing to play an active role in making every effort to maintain peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula.
However, North Korea does not want a conflict with South Korea. During talks with Chinese Minister Wang Yi, DPRK Vice Foreign Minister Pak Myong-ho said that the DPRK is willing to work with China to maintain regional peace and stability. This shows that North Korea is not willing to confront South Korea. North Korea took action because South Korea did not show a posture of maintaining peace on the peninsula, but instead engaged in joint military exercises with the United States and constantly provoked North Korea.
In the face of provocations by the United States and South Korea, North Korea had to take measures to defend itself. While North Korea's actions have heightened tensions on the peninsula, there is a desire to avoid confrontation. By expressing a tough stance, the DPRK hopes to arouse the attention of the international community to its security and achieve the goal of peace talks.
As a defender of peace on the Korean Peninsula, China will do its utmost to stabilize the situation. China has always supported the settlement of the Korean Peninsula issue through dialogue and consultation, and opposes any escalation of conflict and aggravation of tension. Not only because of the stable development of China-DPRK relations, but also because of the principle of peace upheld by China.
China calls on all parties to remain calm and exercise restraint, with the aim of avoiding further escalation of the situation on the Korean Peninsula and creating favorable conditions for the resumption of dialogue. China has always played a constructive role in international affairs and made positive efforts for regional peace and stability. China will continue to pay close attention to developments on the Korean Peninsula and contribute to the maintenance of peace and stability.
The escalation of tensions on the Korean Peninsula has aroused widespread concern, and at this critical moment, China, as an important neighbor and regional power, should play an active role. China has a deep concern for peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and has the influence to promote the settlement of the Korean Peninsula issue.
Against the backdrop of tensions on the Korean Peninsula, China's diplomatic efforts can help change the current trend of the situation and create favorable conditions for regional peace. China actively calls on all parties to remain calm and exercise restraint, with the aim of avoiding an escalation of the conflict. At the same time, China is willing to play the role of a defender of peace and contribute to peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula by promoting dialogue and consultation.
Ultimately, however, it is the decisions and actions of the two Koreas that can reduce tensions on the peninsula. Both the DPRK and the ROK need to be calm and restrained, abandon the mindset of hostility and confrontation, and actively resolve differences through dialogue and negotiation. Only by respecting and understanding each other can a solution to the Korean Peninsula issue be found. The international community should also strengthen communication and cooperation, work together for peace and stability on the peninsula, and avoid conflicts and wars.
