The special bearer of the President of South Korea, it turns out, met with the North Korean official only a few days later from the moment of the declared nuclear test of the DPRK in October . According to AFP, this fact was confirmed by the representative of the Office of the South Korean President of RO Hyn, but only on Thursday. The official said that the meeting was held in Beijing on October 20.
Seoul wanted to check the intelligence data, according to which North Korea nevertheless agreed to disarmament. President Ro Mu Hyun decided to check these messages and decided to find out what the true intentions of the dangerous northern neighbor.
Representatives of the DPRK before this meeting were tuned exclusively for discussing Seoul rice and fertilizer supplies. However, to universal surprise, on October 31, Pyongyang agreed to six -sided negotiations on the revision of his nuclear program.
Now, South Korean newspapers accused the president of violating a promise to make a policy of North Korea transparent. That is, Ro Mu Hyun violated the laws on national security, allowing the representative of Seoul to meet with the North Korean official without approving this meeting by the Ministry of Association. The President is suspected that he is secretly trying to arrange an inter -Korean meeting at the highest level this year, trying to strengthen his chances in the December presidential election. The government claims that time has not yet come for negotiations with Kim Jong Ir.
However, in the presidential office, these rumors refute: "We could not carry out any negotiations, since relations with the DPRK after nuclear tests were heated to the limit." The main topic of this meeting was to convince the DPRK to participate in six -sided negotiations, officials say.
