South Korean Opposition Leader Calls for Inter-Korean Summit
The most obvious question in regards to this idea is what will the bribe amount be to secure a summit? Kim Jong-un is not going to show up to an Inter-Korean summit without a bribe. Secondly what will they talk about? How Kim Jong-un’s grandpa was responsible for the killing of President Park’s mother? North Korea is not going to give up their nuclear or missile programs so it is a waste of time to talk about that. From their perspective why would they give them up?:
Rep. Park Jie-won, the interim leader of the country’s second-largest opposition party, called on President Park Geun-hye, Wednesday, to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to break the deadlock in inter-Korean relations.
He also asked President Park to push for a constitutional revision during the remainder of her term that ends in February 2018.
“The most important things that Park should do during her remaining year-and-a-half in office are to push for an inter-Korean summit and a constitutional revision at the earliest possible date,” Park of the People’s Party said in a speech at the National Assembly. [Korea Times]
You can read more at the link, but Rep. Park may also be calling for reforming the Presidential system to change it to two four year terms like we have in the US. It seems to me the five year term has been working well for South Korea so why the need to change it?
