On 30 June, Kim Yong-chun, member of the Standing Committee of the DPRK Central Committee, and Kim Dae-jung, president of the Republic of Korea, issued a joint statement in the Chinese capital of Gyeongshi.

“…… At this time, our two countries have conformed to the will of the people, put aside prejudices and differences, and started the process of national reunification......

The film of hundreds of media outlets at the scene was constantly murdered by the heads of state of the two countries, especially the scenes where they shook hands and hugged each other, and the flashing lights rose and fell in pieces, as bright as a strong searchlight. Several veteran reporters took pictures and recorded them, and muttered: "These two goods will not run away from the Nobel Peace Prize." ”

The 500-plus-word joint statement is actually not very nutritious, but it is nothing more than a brief review of the history of the DPRK-ROK split, describing the suffering of the confrontation between the North and the South, rejoicing in the results of bilateral reconciliation, and looking forward to the future of reunification. There is only one message that is actually meaningful -- the DPRK and the ROK have already negotiated the matter of reunification, and the next step is to get to work.

In addition to the fixed quota assigned to reporters from China, North Korea and South Korea, a group of reporters almost got into a fight because of an opportunity to ask questions.

"How long has the reunification and merger of the two Koreas been planned?"

"May I ask how the two Koreas will be reunified, similar to the model of German reunification?"

"Will the newly created state be a socialist or a capitalist state?"

……

Fortunately, Kim Yongchun and Kim Dae-jung were quite patient, and they spent nearly an hour answering a few more important questions, although the explanations could not be very detailed, but they also sketched a picture of the new Korean Federation for the outside world, which made the reporters tremble with excitement. This kind of event is enough to provide thousands of news materials, and even how to prevent rabies after the merger of the two Koreas can be written, not to mention things in the general direction.

At the end of the question, an American reporter asked a sensitive question: "Mr. President Kim Tae-jung, the reconciliation and reunification of the DPRK and the ROK have undoubtedly provided a better security environment for the Korean Peninsula. ”

As soon as this question came out, all the reporters stopped their buzzing discussions, widened their eyes and pricked up their ears and waited for Kim Dae-jung's reply, because this question is obviously too important and crucial to the future direction of the situation in Northeast Asia and the Asia-Pacific region.

Kim Dae-jung paused and said in a relatively flat tone: "The United States and the ROK have always been close allies, and after the establishment of the Korean Federation, China will continue to devote itself to developing diplomatic relations with major countries in the world, including, of course, stabilizing and developing relations with the United States, which is an important economic partner of our country and an important force for maintaining world stability and peace, and relations with the United States are in a relatively important position in China's diplomatic blueprint in the future." ”

Although these words may sound high-sounding, a careful taste can still reveal a lot of information. First of all, the most crucial point is whether the DPRK will allow the United States to continue to station troops on the peninsula without saying a word, and comparing the United States with the rest of the world is a downgrading of the status of the United States. Even in the diplomatic strategy, it is said that relations with the United States are relatively important, but not the most important, and it is obvious that the influence of the United States on the Korean Peninsula will face major challenges in the future.

Other reporters wanted to ask in depth, but Kim Yongchun and Kim Dae-jung stopped giving them this opportunity, thanked the reporters present, and then left the venue together. Journalists from all over the world, who were left behind with anxiety and speculation, looked at their backs, eager to arrest them and torture them to get the news they wanted.

The joint statement completely confirmed the speculation that North and South Korea were about to merge almost without warning, and the geopolitical landscape in Northeast Asia was facing a reshuffle. In this process of reshuffling, China has taken the lead, obviously the DPRK and the ROK can be smoothly merged, China is indispensable for mediation and mediation, China's influence on the DPRK is huge, and obviously after the merger, the most important diplomatic relationship that the Korean Federation needs to develop is the friendly relationship with China.

Washington has just woken up from a dream and is operating at a high speed to assess the tremendous impact that the merger of the DPRK and the ROK may have on the United States, especially in the military aspect, and the US military obviously does not want to abolish the US troops stationed in the ROK, so the main goal of the US at this stage is to retain the US military presence in the Korean Federation, and all other issues can be postponed for a later stage.

In fact, even if there are unpredictable changes on the Korean Peninsula, the United States is still quite arrogant, believing that changes will naturally occur, but with the strength of the United States, there is nothing they cannot handle, and in the end, the humble Koreans (this refers to the citizens of the entire Korean Peninsula) will still bow down and make small in the face of the powerful United States.

There are even some more hawkish American politicians who openly hold reunification talks with South Korea and North Korea, and they are very unhappy to ignore the American godfather.

Although most South Koreans are envious of the excellent living conditions of the United States and identify with some of the humanistic values of the United States, the image of the United States as a subject in South Korea is generally mixed. In particular, some of the hegemonic acts of the United States against the ROK have been magnified at this moment.

Last year, the storm of the incident of US soldiers raping and killing female staff in a South Korean hotel has not yet subsided, and at this time, the US military stationed in South Korea seems to have not felt that their status in South Korea has become more and more embarrassing, and they have once again committed something that is angry and resentful. A US armored vehicle from Chuncheon City, Gangwon Province, hit and killed two South Korean female high school students while galloping.

However, there were eyewitnesses at the scene, and they informed the law enforcement agencies of this scene, and it is obvious that the South Koreans do not have the authority to go to the US military barracks to arrest the culprits, and although the South Korean judicial organs have submitted a request to the Judge Advocate General's Office of the US military stationed in South Korea to hand over the criminals, the US military has temporarily rejected the South Koreans' request on the grounds that they need to conduct an investigation first.

In fact, the US soldiers involved in the accident drove the armored vehicle out of the camp without permission. The undisciplined US soldiers stationed overseas often do things of stealing chickens and dogs, and commit countless crimes. Trespassing into private houses and the like, stealing, and fighting are relatively small, and many US officers and men run out with the assets of the base to show off, and most of the US soldiers have the experience of driving military vehicles to the streets of the garrison where they are stationed.

And this time, apparently the armored car did not go out of the camp to carry out the mission, a few bad boys drove the armored car out to buy pizza and beer, and in the process of driving, they were too careless and knocked down two schoolgirls crossing the road. In fact, they didn't mean to hit and run, but because of a few bottles of beer, they were already a little dizzy, and they felt as if they had hit something, but they didn't care.

So these guys ran over the bodies of the two female students, and the female students were not directly killed, but they were run over and led to inevitable death.

The above situation was disclosed by a South Korean tabloid, and the order and order of the incident were also very clear, making people feel like the truth at a glance, and the major Korean media reprinted it one after another, with additional comments condemning the brutality of American soldiers.

The tide of comments quickly spread, and some members of the press asked whether it was necessary for South Korea to keep US troops stationed on its own soil since North and South Korea were about to merge, wasting a lot of taxpayers' taxes every year to feed them, which did not play much of a defensive role, but rather made a lot of achievements in abusing its own people.

What is even more ruthless is that some reporters have dug up the budget expenses provided by the ROK for the US military stationed in the ROK over the years, and the amount is quite huge, and according to the "Defense Expense Sharing Agreement," the ROK has to give the Americans hundreds of millions of dollars every year to maintain the US military bases. In the future, it is obviously unlikely that war will break out on the Korean Peninsula, and there will be nothing to sustain if so many US troops remain on the Korean Peninsula except to increase the burden on themselves and even bring crime.

There may be a South Korean cent-party that would offer Americans to help defend against aggression from China, but the South Koreans themselves are dismissive of this. What kind of country is Russia, China says that it will be flat, and even if South Korea has the help of the United States, China really wants to invade, can it withstand it? Of course, the U.S. military may give China greater scruples about sending troops, but who can guarantee that when a catastrophe comes, the Americans will sacrifice their lives to fight for the South Koreans?

With the repeated bombing of South Korean newspapers and other media, most South Koreans finally got their heads in: Yes, the Korean Peninsula is about to be reunified, so why keep the US military base and the US military stationed in South Korea?

In addition, the recent crime of killing a South Korean high school girl committed by US soldiers stationed in South Korea made the South Koreans even more angry, and finally, under the organization of well-intentioned people, South Korean non-governmental organizations mobilized tens of thousands of people to gather at the US Embassy in South Korea, US military bases in South Korea, and other places to carry out demonstrations and protests, demanding that the United States hand over the perpetrators and evacuate from South Korea, so as to maintain South Korea's sovereignty and dignity.

The tide is getting bigger and bigger, and even some more extreme people have even proposed refusing to buy American goods or other anti-American activities, which caught the US government and military off guard for a while.
