President Moon Jae-in said about the murder of an official in North Korea's fishing guidance line, "I express my deepest condolences and condolences for the heartache and grief of the bereaved family regardless of how the victim went to the North Korean waters."
President Moon said at a meeting of the chief and advisors this afternoon that "the shock and anger received by the people will remain fully understood," and "regardless of the reason, it is a very regrettable heart for the government to protect the lives and safety of the people."
President Moon continued, "I take it in a special sense for the fact that Chairman Kim Jong-un has conveyed that he is very sorry to the people of Korea." I can confirm it."
Emphasizing the facts of the incident and preparing practical measures to prevent recurrence, he said, "I look forward to turning this tragic incident into an opportunity for dialogue and cooperation and to advance inter-Korean relations so that this tragic incident does not end with an incident."
“Even if we cannot go through institutional inter-Korean cooperation right away, we must keep the lowest line to maintain peace in any case.” “I hope that from solving this case, we can ignite dialogue and open the waters of cooperation.” He added.
To this end, President Moon said, "I ask the North to restore and restart military communication lines first."
