GA Home SFPT 50th Anniversary Collective Amnesia Tuesday July 24, 11:09 PM Japan and China square off over war history By Paul Eckert and Teruaki Ueno HANOI (Reuters) - Chinese Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan told Japanese counterpart Makiko Tanaka on Tuesday that Tokyo must end a bitter dispute over Japan's war history to avoid damaging ties between the Asian powers. Tang told Tanaka that Tokyo must "take concrete steps to sincerely and properly settle outstanding problems" over history textbooks and Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi's plan to visit a controversial war shrine, Chinese spokesman Sun Yuxi said. Tang, emerging after an hour of talks with Tanaka on the sidelines of a regional conference in Hanoi, told reporters: "I clearly urged them to give up" Koizumi's plans to pay homage at Yasukuni Shrine next month. "If Prime Minister Koizumi visits Yasukuni Shrine, it will undoubtedly spark strong anger among the people of China," a Japanese official quoted Tang as telling Tanaka.

Travel Warnings LANGUAGES Deutsch Dutch Español Français ... Korea, Republic History and Government History: The first civilisation in Korea was centred on the state of Choson which developed in the northwest corner of the peninsula in the second century BC. Choson steadily expanded until it came up against the more advanced Yen, a feudal empire which governed much of northern China. At the beginning of the first century BC, China, now ruled by the Han dynasty, attacked and destroyed Choson and governed the northern part of the peninsula for the next 400 years. To the south, a number of independent rival kingdoms evolved, of which the most important was the Silla in the southeast. In alliance with the Chinese Tang dynasty, which had taken over in northern China in AD 618, the Silla defeated their competitors and created a single political entity in Korea in AD 668 for the first time. Around AD 870, a wave of rebellions broke out across Silla-controlled territory: this triggered the gradual disintegration of the Silla empire and a period of chaos in which rival forces struggled for control. The eventual victor in the early tenth century was the Koryo dynasty, once vanquished by the Silla, who allied themselves with the Song dynasty in China. The Koryo emulated the Song in establishing an advanced cultural and technological society (including the invention of printing in 1234, two centuries before its discovery in the West).

Thursday, April 10, 2003 Archive: Network Reports: NAPSNet Daily Report NAPSNet Special Reports South Asia Nuclear Dialogue Special Forum PFO 03-29A: A Role For Russia In Korean Settlement David Wolff, Senior Scholar, Cold War International History Project at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, asserts that US-Russia cooperation can play a significant role in settlement of the Korean Peninsula, as it will provide security assurances to Pyongyang from a source it trusts more than the US, while providing a stepping stone on the way to expansions and improvements in US-NK ties and renewed cooperation with the IAEA. It points the way toward regional discussions that will not automatically turn into a reprise on Cold War alliances with the US-Japan-SK triangle opposing the Russia-China-NK side. The views expressed in this article are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of the Nautilus Institute. Readers should note that Nautilus seeks a diversity of views and opinions on contentious topics in order to identify common ground. Go to Wolff's essay PFO 03-28A: Toward An 'Asian' North Korea Mindy Kotler, director and founder of the Japan Information Access Project in Washington, DC, asserts that the Bush administration must examine its three fundamental assumptions of North Korea: 1) Kim Jong Il is a gangster and not a legitimate head of state; 2) North Korea is a client state of the People's Republic of China; and 3) North Korea's neighbors are not concerned with another Asian nuclear power. By failing to analyze these assumptions, the Bush administration has hindered a creative response to North Korea's nuclear program.

He advised Pyongyang not to become "emboldened" by the US administration's immediate focus on Iraq. "We are capable of fighting two major regional conflicts. We're capable of winning decisively in one and swiftly defeating in the case of the other, and let there be no doubt about it," Mr Rumsfeld said.
