It has been the position of our foreign ministry to take clumsy measures, such as countries with no self-defense capability or entry restrictions. Diplomatic authorities are embarrassed, however, as advanced nations like Japan and Australia have left Italy with just 100 dead.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called for the Japanese Embassy Soma to work shortly after the Japanese measures were reported yesterday.

I asked for further explanation of the decision yesterday, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also calling today's Ambassador Tomita to seriously protest.

The surge in Korean confirmers has been concentrated in specific regions and groups, such as Daegu, Gyeongbuk, and Sincheonji, and Japan has made an excessive decision even though it has been described as a result of rapid and accurate inspection capabilities.

Even if the recent conflicts between Korea and Japan have reduced, the number of Japanese visitors and hundreds of thousands of people per month have been prepared.

In addition, Australia has banned entry into Korea by the 11th and is reviewing whether it will be extended every week.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Kang Kyung-Hwa, who evaluated most of the measures as being incapable of defense.

[Kang, Kyung-Hwa / Minister of Foreign Affairs (Yes, National Assembly Foreign Ministry): Those countries without their own defense ability are taking such a crude action called a ban on entry.]

But some say advanced defense countries such as Japan and Australia have banned only us, leaving Italy with much more deaths.

Minister Kang Kyung-hwa has called on diplomatic corps from more than 100 countries this afternoon to work on his own.
