The 'North Korean defector repatriation case' re-ignites... How much is a big river confrontation?

<Anchor>

Let's analyze the claims related to the repatriation of North Korean defector fishermen and reporter Kim Ki-tae from the Political Department.

[Reporter Ki-Tae Kim: Yes.

The former head of the Moon Jae-in administration, Chung Eui-yong, was deported because he judged the defection was not sincere.

Director Jeong said that he did not defect immediately after the crime, but escaped because an accomplice was arrested by the North Korean authorities.

Didn't the presidential office pre-determine repatriation to North Korea with the frame of a vicious criminal?

I refute like this.]

[Reporter Ki-Tae Kim: As you said, it is a little difficult to judge.

First, the UN Convention against Torture prohibits the deportation of individuals to countries at risk of torture.

However, if you look at the Immigration Control Act among domestic laws, foreigners who harm public safety may be barred from entering the country.

It's like this.

So, are North Koreans foreigners?

Aren't we citizens under the Constitution?

No, considering the peculiarities between the two Koreas, you can be seen as a semi-foreigner. The fight continues like this.

[Reporter Ki-Tae Kim: Yes.

The issue that the new and old governments are confronting is not just about the repatriation of North Korean fishermen to North Korea.

The NIS is known to be looking at the USB that President Moon Jae-in gave to Kim Jong-un during the inter-Korean summit in 2018, and also looking into the messages exchanged through the hotline between NIS Director Suh Hoon and North Korean Unification Front Director Kim Yong-chol during the Pyeongchang Olympics. passed on.

Today (17th), the senior public relations chief came to the briefing for the first time and poured out his remarks.

In the midst of this, the Ministry of Unification, which released photos of the defector fishermen at the time of repatriation to North Korea, confirmed that there was a video taken with a mobile phone by an employee at the site.

He said that he is in the process of reviewing the law to see if he can submit the video to the National Assembly.
