* There is an additional note at the end, so please read it together. *

 

In the Ukrainian situation, Japan, the United States, the EU, the United Kingdom and Germany all announced sanctions against Russia.
It is important to keep pace and show that you are "in the same camp" rather than the actual effect.
But, as always, that's all, the South Korean government hasn't responded to the situation in Ukraine.
On the contrary, he showed a negative view of sanctions.
At the Japan-US-Korea Foreign Ministers' Meeting on the 12th, South Korea has just promised "close cooperation" in the situation in Ukraine.

 

South Korea's President Moon Jae-in said of the situation in Ukraine, "If Western countries such as the United States impose strong sanctions on Russia, it will have a great impact on South Korea's economy."
The citation source will be [EDAILY イーデイリー ].
I haven't said anything concrete, but the sanctions are based on "Western countries such as the United States", "Korea will be affected", and daily activities. I don't think this is saying, "I'm against sanctions. South Korea doesn't participate in sanctions."
At least I don't think I'm in favor of sanctions.
I will quote a little below.

This has increased the scope to more than 500 individuals and more than 50 organizations, including all 351 Russian House members in favor of the resolution to approve separatism.
The EU has also decided to ban financing of the Kremlin and the Central Bank of Russia with financial sanctions.


[Uljura Ponderion / EU Executive Committee Chairman: As we have seen, Russia has tooled energy last month, not to mention years, to put pressure on the European Union as well as Ukraine. Did. And now we are really determined to get out of Russia's dependence on gas.

In this, the Pentagon evaluated Russia as ready for a full-scale invasion.
With 150,000 Russian troops stationed in the border area, 80% are ready to attack and can attack at any time.
Following the declaration of dispatch of troops, sanctions and oppression from the West, such as the United States, continued against Russia, which had completed legal preparations, and the situation in Ukraine was pushed to a state of immediate action.

The reason why EDAILY took the trouble to "discuss in advance" is that the US side must have requested South Korea to participate in the sanctions, but South Korea is late.
[Yonhap News聯合ニュース] also states, "Because the United States has emphasized a'united response'with the alliance and friendly countries on the situation in Ukraine, it would have been in talks with its alliance, South Korea."

Cheong Wa Dae "Openly consider many possibilities."

South Korea stipulates that Russia's invasion of Ukraine has begun on the 22nd (local time), and it will be watched whether the South Korean government will participate in this while issuing the first sanctions against Russia.
The government has, in effect, admitted that it has been in talks with the United States in connection with sanctions, and has not closed the possibility of joining, but it remains cautious to take immediate action.

It is expected that the corresponding water level will be examined step by step by comprehensively considering the direction of development of the situation in Ukraine, the movement of sanctions by the international community, the Hanler relations and the impact on the peace process of the Korean Peninsula.

A high-ranking official of Cheong Wa Dae met with reporters on the 23rd and asked, "Are you asked by the United States to participate in sanctions against Russia?" He clarified the plan. He said that he had come and said, "We have been holding such discussions with friendly countries."

The predominant observation is that the United States has been in close talks with South Korea, the core alliance of Asia, as it has emphasized a "united response" with the alliance and friends to prevent Russia from invading Ukraine.

The South Korean government is currently recognizing that peaceful resolution of the situation through dialogue and diplomacy is a priority, and has not disclosed a specific direction as to whether or not to participate in proxy sanctions.
Compared to the United States, the European Union (EU), and the seven major countries (G7), it is a little cautious.

When President Vladimir Putin approved the independence of two separatist regions in eastern Ukraine and approved the dispatch, the United States issued the first sanctions package described as "primary."
The main contents are VEB, Russia's largest national policy bank, PSB, a defense support special bank, asset freezes on 42 of these subsidiaries, restrictions on Russian government bond transactions, and personal sanctions on Russia's top-level personnel in collaboration with Kremlin. ..

High-ranking officials of the Biden administration said that the sanctions would be "announced with allies and partners from the EU to the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Australia, etc." did.
The possibility that South Korea will provide some subsidies to the movements requested by the United States in the future is open in that it did not draw a line on whether or not to participate in proxy sanctions.

A high-ranking official of Cheong Wa Dae said, "Major Western countries have expressed their willingness to participate in proxy sanctions." "We also open up various possibilities (how to respond to these requests). I'm watching. "
In particular, diplomats' analysis shows that there can be diverse spectra of methods of cooperating with coping measures.

Faithful implementation of the US-led international sanctions system is also a relatively weak stage, but appears to be in effect cooperating.

The US's own sanctions often have a widespread spillover effect due to the influence that the US has on the global financial markets.
When the United States embarked on proxy sanctions in Russia's merger of the Crimean Peninsula in 2014, South Korea did not take explicit actions such as its own sanctions, but it had the effect of greatly reducing the transactions of South Korean companies with Russia.

Even if South Korea directly imposes its own sanctions with higher strength, there are various options from symbolic measures to powerful measures such as export control that can affect actual Korean companies.

However,<<・・The United States wants South Korea, a semiconductor powerhouse and an ally that exports automobiles and electronic products to Russia, to participate in export-related sanctions in order to maximize the substantial pressure on Russia. Some have speculated that they would want it.

The US diplomatic magazine Foreign Policy reported on the 22nd that the United States has been discussing sanctions with Asian economic powers and has been able to obtain support for export-related sanctions enforcement plans from Singapore, Japan and Taiwan to date. , I didn't write anything about support from South Korea in this article
・ ・and also it didn't write it.・・>

 

It is expected that the government will consider step-by-step countermeasures while watching the situation development with various options in mind.
In particular, it has been pointed out that if the United States and Russia cannot find a diplomatic breakthrough in the end and the situation intensifies seriously, the government will have to cooperate with the United States to some extent.

Besides, I wondered if there was any official announcement from the Korean government, and when I investigated a little more, there was information on "anonymous government officials".
I remember writing the same thing before, but even with anonymous information, the way I said that I met the reporter "tachi" on a day-to-day means that at least there are other people who have heard of it. , It can be said that it is highly credible.
The source article [Current Affairs Journal 時事ジャーナル ] is such a kind.
Below, I will summarize only the related remarks of "government officials".


<・・"We are currently considering diplomatic measures," "I hope that we will not give up dialogue in Ukraine, ease tensions through diplomatic efforts, and work toward a peaceful solution."
"The United States has been talking about sanctions against Russia, and our potential has opened up as a responsible member of the international community."
"But the content of sanctions cannot be disclosed."
"I don't know how the situation in Ukraine will develop in the future, so I open up all the possibilities."
"Take necessary measures to minimize the negative impact on the Korean economy and ensure that the people carry out stable economic activities." ・・>

etc.

After writing it, I say it, but the contents are zero.

"Open all possibilities and compare .. National economic stability is the highest priority"
In the case of each construction cooperation with Russia, it will bear the burden on the peace process of the Korean Peninsula

Cheong Wa Dae said in connection with the situation in Ukraine, "We are considering various possibilities, but military support and dispatching are not applicable."
Cheong Wa Dae officials met with reporters at the Chunqiu Pavilion on the 23rd and said, "We are currently considering diplomatic measures" in connection with the situation in Ukraine.

"We want to keep the conversation in Ukraine, and through more diplomatic efforts, to ease tensions and contribute to a peaceful solution," he said.

 

On the other hand, he mentioned the possibility of sanctions.
"The United States has been in close contact with related countries such as the United States as a responsible member of the international community in South Korea regarding international social sanctions," said a presidential official in connection with the request for participation in the US sanctions against Russia. We have clarified plans such as high-strength export control and financial sanctions against the United States. "

"We have continued such discussions with our friendly countries, and we are opening up various possibilities," he said.
Nevertheless, he cautioned that it would be difficult to publicly disclose the specific content of sanctions.

However, he said, "Since it is still uncertain how the situation in Ukraine will develop in the future, the government should open up all possibilities and make multiple contrasts."
"Our response will be adjusted depending on the direction in which this situation develops and the response of each country," said the person. "In any case, the negative impact on the Korean economy will be minimized. , Take necessary measures to ensure that the people carry out stable economic activities. "

It has been observed that if South Korea becomes a corner with Russia, it will be a burden on the stable side of Northeast Asia and the peace process of the Korean Peninsula.
In response to this opinion, the person concerned said, "It is important that close cooperation between these countries is maintained as" a nation that has provided a lot of help to the peace process of the Korean Peninsula, including Russia as well as the United States and Europe. " That's it. "

He then said, "We are paying close attention to the situation in North Korea and are continuing discussions with the United States, China, Japan, Russia, and European countries." We have made a lot of efforts to make it so, "he said.

Jung Jeongyeon "Beijing Olympics Diplomatic Boycott No Review" Reaffirms Existing Position

Chung Eui-yong, Minister of Foreign Affairs, is holding a briefing for reporters from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 29th. Union News


Foreign Minister Chung Eui-yong said on the 29th that the draft declaration of the end of the war on the Korean Peninsula was "a state in which (Korea and the United States) have already virtually agreed."

The problem is talks with North Korea, but in February next year, it was difficult for the Beijing Winter Olympics to trigger an improvement in North-South relations.

On this day, Chung said, "I sympathize with the importance of Korea and the United States," in connection with the declaration of the end of the war, which was promoted as a proposal to resume dialogue with North Korea at a press conference.

He explained that he reaffirmed this fact when he met with US Secretary of State Tony Brinklin at the Group of Seven (G7) Foreign Ministers' Expansion Conference held in the United Kingdom on the 11th to 12th. ..

This is the first time senior officials have revealed that a de facto agreement has been reached on a draft end-of-war declaration.

The problem is to get North Korea's participation.
"We are considering how to proceed with talks with North Korea," Chung said.
"I have never been told about North Korea's position through China," he said. "I hope there will be a more concrete response (of North Korea)."

Chung negatively saw the possibility of a North-South or South-North-China summit meeting triggered by the Beijing Olympics.
"I hoped the Beijing Olympics would be a catalyst for improving North-South relations, but I think it's actually getting harder," he said.

This is because the spread of Corona 19 makes it uncertain about North Korea's high-ranking personnel's visit to China, and the South Korean government has no choice but to take into account the situation in which the United States and other countries are embarking on a diplomatic boycott of the Beijing Olympics.

However, Chung reaffirmed the government's existing position, saying it was "not considering" the Olympic boycott.
He then said, "We will consider various situations within the government to decide how to attend," and suggested adjusting the level of the government delegation and how to participate.

In connection with North Korea's recent move to strengthen its nuclear weapons, Chung said, "The South Korean government is closely observing various movements in North Korea with deep concern and interest." As it gets worse, it is best to lead North Korea with dialogue and lead the peace process on the Korean Peninsula as soon as possible. "

Regarding the indication that the South Korean government has never participated in the resolution of the international community related to the human rights issues of North Korea and China, "The part that has a special relationship with North Korea and China and cooperates directly with security. There are many, without directly participating in such international efforts. "

Chung emphasized that the position taken by the South Korean government in the US-China strategic competition is not ambiguous.
In response to a question related to the comfort women issue of the Japanese military, which is a case of the Korea-Japan conflict, Secretary Chung urged Japan to move forward, asking, "Do you not know where the original sin is?"

The day before, he said that he "expresses deep regret" that the Japanese government has selected the Sado mine, which is a site for forced recruitment of 朝鮮人(조선인 Joseon people, Koreans), as a candidate for UNESCO World Cultural Heritage registration.

Reporter Kim Young-sung ys8584@kmib.co.kr


By the way, regarding North Korea and China, the Minister of Foreign Affairs himself has publicly stated that "South Korea will not directly participate in the efforts of the international community to point out human rights issues (Kukmin Ilbo, December 29, 20212021年12月29日国民日報)." Korea.
The reason was that China and North Korea were "the security of South Korea, because they are important and special countries for the economy."
Do you say the same thing to Russia?
As I wrote in the previous entry, will it continue to "fight against the listing of Sado Kinzan as a World Heritage Site"?
This case seems to be a different level from the diplomatic non-participation of the Beijing Winter Olympics.


 ※Postscript ... After Russia launched an attack on Ukraine, President Moon Jae-in changed his stance and said, "I will participate in the efforts of the international community."
However, he does not step into his own sanctions and takes the form of participating in sanctions such as the United States.
