  • Re:Troubled Encounter: Japan–DPRK Non-Relations

Apart from the Sino-Japanese War, I don't see any dark clouds in the horizon for Japan. On the other hand, Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) will still be a thorn. What happened in the past can't be undone, but the choices that both countries make today will influence the future. Sadly, tomorrow doesn't look bright for DPRK. It's easy to blame its president, Kim Jong-un (or his father, Kim Jong-il), but look at the economic state of the country. Put it in another way, can you blame the North Koreans for having few (or no) options due to poverty?
