North Korea is one of the hot issues in this world. They constantly try to catch the attention of the world to protect their own political system and economic benefits. Sometimes their behaviors provoke problems because they threaten other countries for themselves. Recently they were trying to make nuclear weapons. Countries wanted to make them stop because if they had nuclear weapons, the world’s safety could be in big trouble. It can lead to terror or war. So the six-party talks is planned to be held. The six-party talks is the name of conference involving North Korea and related five countries; South Korea, The United States, Russia, Japan and China. I agree with the idea that the six-party countries should establish multi-lateral relations with North Korea. That’s because of these three reasons; each country’s political and economic situations are different; five countries can build up collective responsibility; it can be model of solving global problems in the future.
First of all, the reason why I agree with the idea is that each country’s political and economic situations are different. If they talk separately with North Korea, they can’t know each other’s standpoint and opinions so that North Korea would take the leadership in diplomatic negotiations. Then there would be no way to solve the problems. North Korea would want more and give less. They know what other five countries’ weak points are so they can claim what they want from each country. But through the six-party talks, five countries can put together their strong points and defend weak points. It’s like one big nation. So the leadership would be no longer taken by North Korea. It is very important matter which side has the leadership in diplomatic negotiations. Countries can make North Korea give up nuclear weapons with minimum cost by the six-party talks.
Second reason is that five countries can build up collective responsibility. The purpose of North Korea’s action is confusing and separating other countries’ connection so they can take high position in negotiation, like I mentioned above. If each country talks with North Korea separately, there would be no country responsible because they don’t know how each other’s negotiation with North Korea progressed. North Korea doesn’t have to fulfill their entire obligation with other five countries because they are not restricted by international law actually, like in recent case. So after conferences, we can’t know which countries are responsible for the result. Then there would be conflicts between five countries. North Korea takes what they want, but other five countries do not because they did not discuss before negotiations.
Last but not least, it can be model of solving global problems in the future. The six-party is countries that one nation which provoked global problems and five countries that are related to the problems. It is very efficient organization to solve the problems because decisions can be made quickly and reflect each country’s interests as much as possible. The Korean Peninsula is very important area in political, economical and also military aspects so it is reasonable that there are so many problems happening in this region. There are also many areas like the Korean Peninsula, which also many problems are occurring. Organization like the six-party can be a good model to solve those problems. By establishing multi-lateral relations, countries that are related to problems can all have benefits.
North Korea’s nuclear problem is not yet solved. It is a real situation full of dynamite. If one thing goes wrong, it can lead to such a disaster. But we have great solution, which can give every country satisfaction. All we have to do is just have some patience and wait. There is no better way to solve the problem than every country sit together and talk their standpoints. They can mediate each other’s interests and all have satisfactory results. So I agree with the idea that the six-party countries should establish multi-lateral relations with North Korea.
