Sample text

Safe? Sane? We can no longer afford to return to the old “carrot and stick” diplomacy “demanding” greater, faster reciprocity, and transparency – risking a return to times of high North–South tensions. It is at such times of high tension that wars historically have begun by accident or miscalculation. We can no longer risk the kinds of crises along the demilitarized zone (DMZ) that have been all too common over the years. Why? Times have changed, beginning with the 1993 No-dong 1 test in the Sea of Japan through the Taepo-1 test over Japan in 1998.

While the North has not accepted the major proposals suggested by South Korea to foster peace on the Korean Peninsula and promote rapprochement and cooperation between the two Koreas, this attitude may change somewhat in the future. There are a number of promising signs. First, the North Korean leader 28 In Je Rhee Kim Jong Il visited both China and Russia. We see these visits as evidence that North Korea is hoping to make the transition to become a state where the economy becomes more open while the governmental system remains intact.

This is not simply because the Declaration that arguably started the recent developments on the Peninsula – a statement which quickly became known as the “Berlin Declaration” – was made by President Kim Dae Jung in Berlin on 9 March 2000. Germany takes a special interest in Korean affairs because it has itself experienced – and is still experiencing – the rewards as well as the problems of reuniting two states with different social systems. We are, of course, aware that the differences between North and South Korea are in many respects – political system, economy, social structure, way of life, access of the population to information about the outside world – much greater than the respective differences between the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic.
