South Korea - text book diplomacy

Showing a much better grasp of how to influence opinion, President Roh of South Korea has used an interview with a German newspaper to comment on Japan's apparent lack of remorse for the last war. By saying Japan's attitude is not consistent with the universal values aspired to by the international community he makes a good job of sounding less like an unreasonable neighbour than the tactless statements that come out of Japans foreign ministry more from the Chosunilbo... He has also pulled no punches in a recent address to his fellow citizens on the issue - but he did at least advise them not to attack Japanese people personally ...which was nice more from Korea Net...
