Japan, S. Korea leaders meet to discuss N. Korea

They have more urgent matters to discuss, such as forthcoming liquidation of seized Japanese assets to compensate forced laborers and the probable naval confrontation at the JDZ after 2027.

The issues of forced laborers and comfort women have already been resolved.

Dealing with lawsuits by such people is the responsibility of the South Korean government, not Japan.

It has been pretty much decided that the seventh mining area will be developed by Japan alone.

There is nothing to be ceded to South Korea.

To begin with, cooperation with South Korea, which only has copied Japanese technology, is almost entirely difficult.

No they are not. The Korean supreme court ruled "Yoon's agreement" illegal and resumed ordering asset seizures of Japanese defendants.

Unfortunately, ZDZ is Korea's continental shelf, not Japan's. Japan claimed rights to it under EEZ, not continental shelf declaration. Thus Japan has fishing rights on surface but Korea has the mining right beneath. This is the reason why Korea was building an impressive navy, to battle Japan one day.

Japan should not intervene in Korea again.

Wouldn't be much of a threat if Japan hadn't brutally colonized the peninsula for 35 years...yea the reality is people don't really forget those kinds of things, especially if you continue with sanctions etc.

Ahh Legrande...I believe Japan colonized both parts of Korea, including the south.

The North had the crap bombed out of it by the US and allies in the Korean war in the 50's.

That would be on the North's mind I guess.

Indeed so. Why intervene there again?

And rightly so: South Korea's border was restored and the North ain't launching any invasions now.

Yes Taiwan....bombs solve everything.

Do I have to go on a historical mission to disprove the "South Koreas border was restored " claim ?

Wasnt there ONE Korea ....at least in recent history.

Guru tired ....

Ask me tomorrow...

To be precise, Japan's rule was 35 years, not 36, as taught in Korea.

No matter what the Korean Supreme Court rules, the Japanese government does not have to follow it. If you want to change what has been agreed upon, you need to discuss it between the nations. If you can't do that, you can't overturn the agreement in developed countries.

Only Korea can make it a non-existent agreement just because the public doesn't like it.

On the other hand, if the Japanese Supreme Court rules against Korea, will the Korean government follow it? No way lol

In the mid-1980s, the question changed to simply asking how far away it is from the territory. This is a method of dividing the sea by drawing a line (median line) on the sea at the same distance from the territory of both countries. In this case, Japan will have the authority to develop and occupy resources in most of the 7th mining area.

And Korea has no technology to mine undersea resources, nor does it have a satisfactory navy. The fact that there are many people who can't swim is enough to show how poor the Korean navy is. Korea should not go out to sea. This is because we can only see a future in which the same fate as the Sewall occurred.

The very idea of South Korea preparing to fight a war with Japan in this day and age is both ridiculous and deranged.
