On January 5, 2022, Japan suffered a 7Level 4**, which caused serious loss of human and material life**. On this day, many countries have expressed their condolences to Japan, the most notable of which is that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un sent a message of condolences to Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, which became the focus of world attention. This move not only makes Japan grateful, but also deeply worried South Korea.
North Korea** published a message of condolences from Kim Jong-un to Fumio Kishida on January 6. This is the first time that Kim Jong-un has sent condolences to Fumio Kishida, and it has left a deep impression. While this is just an ordinary message of condolence, it is a rare move, given that North Korea does not usually send similar condolences to countries it considers unfriendly. Kim Jong-un's message of condolences expressed his shock at the disaster and personnel in Japan, and expressed deep sympathy and condolences to Fumio Kishida, the families of the victims and the injured. The DPRK side also prayed that the people in the disaster-stricken areas would be able to shake off the consequences of the disaster as soon as possible and return to a stable life. Japan accepted and thanked the message of condolence, while South Korea was worried.
Against the backdrop of tensions on the Korean Peninsula, North Korea's initiative to contact Japan has aroused widespread concern. Japan is more inclined to South Korea on the Korean Peninsula issue and maintains a close military alliance with the United States, and its relations with North Korea have always been unfriendly. Under such circumstances, the DPRK suddenly extended an olive branch to Japan, showing its willingness to calm the situation and strive for more interaction and cooperation with Japan. However, it has also created contradictions and confusion for Japan and South Korea, as they are unsure of the real motives and follow-up of North Korea's move.
Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi thanked Kim Jong-un for his message of condolence, noting that Japan has received condolences from various countries. Although Japan's response was relatively normal, it shows that Japan has accepted North Korea's condolences. In contrast, South Korea is more nervous. The South Korean side considers it rare for the DPRK to send a message of condolence to Japan, since, as a rule, the DPRK does not send similar telegrams to countries that are considered unfriendly. South Korea then publicly expressed strong dissatisfaction with North Korea's coastal artillery fire and quickly organized live-fire drills in response.
South Korea and the United States said that the simultaneous condolence message from North Korea and tensions made South Korea worried. In the face of North Korea's goodwill statements, South Korea fears that North Korea may have other larger goals. Especially as the situation on the peninsula continues to heat up, South Korea fears that North Korea's move could further escalate tensions and even lead to the outbreak of direct conflict.
There may be many complex meanings behind North Korea's message of condolences to Japan. The appearance of this message of condolence shows that the DPRK currently has the desire and motivation to establish more interaction with Japan. Perhaps the DPRK hopes to stabilize the situation on the peninsula through this move, so as to reduce tensions with its neighbors and create favorable conditions for future peaceful development. In addition, the DPRK's message of condolence to Japan may also be a way to send a message to Japan about its position and willingness on the situation on the peninsula.
However, this move also raises many questions and challenges. For Japan, they have close relations with the United States, and North Korea's antipathy towards the United States makes it impossible for Japan to easily establish friendly relations with North Korea. Therefore, Japan, after responding to the message of condolence, will face the dilemma of how to continue to interact with the DPRK. In addition, North Korea's relations with Japan will also have a significant impact on South Korea. South Korea faces the challenge of how to respond to and master the development of relations between North Korea and Japan in order to protect its own interests and security.
The message of condolence sent by the DPRK to Japan has aroused widespread concern and speculation in the international community. The move was seen as a sign of North Korea's desire to establish more interaction and cooperation with Japan in order to ease tensions and create conditions for future peaceful development. However, it has also created confusion and concern for Japan and South Korea, as they are unsure of North Korea's true intentions and follow-up. Especially against the backdrop of tensions on the peninsula, South Korea fears that such a move by the DPRK could exacerbate tensions and lead to the outbreak of conflict. The stability of the entire region and China's security are also threatened. Therefore, the international community needs to pay close attention to the interaction and development between the DPRK, Japan and the ROK, and make efforts to maintain peace and stability.
