Chinese President Xi Jinping raised concerns about the threat of coronavirus to North Korea and offered help, state media reported. Mr Xi was responding to a message from North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. North Korean state media reported on Friday that Mr Kim congratulated China on its success in combating the outbreak. KCNA said: “Kim Jong-un in his message extended his warm greetings to Xi Jinping and congratulated him, highly appreciating that he is seizing a chance of victory in the war against the unprecedented epidemic.” North Korea claims to have no cases of coronavirus which has infected millions of people around the world since it broke out in the Chinese city of Wuhan in December. Mr Kim recently sparked rumours about his health after he vanished for three weeks. There were reports that he had undergone heart surgery and was in a vegetative state or even dead. But the North Korean leader reemerged at a fertiliser plant on May 2. Pictures and videos show Mr Kim cutting the ribbon at the opening ceremony. KCNA reported that people at the factory “broke into thunderous cheers of hurrah” when he appeared. The public appearance was his first since April 11. Seoul’s National Intelligence Service (NIS) blamed Mr Kim’s absence on a possible coronavirus outbreak in North Korea at a parliamentary committee on Wednesday.

Speculation about Mr Kim’s health began after he missed the birth anniversary celebrations of his grandfather Kim Il-sung on April 15. Former senior North Korean diplomat Thae Yong-ho claimed that Mr Kim was suffering from a serious illness or dead. Another defector Ji Seong-ho said he was certain the North Korean leader had died after heart surgery and an official announcement was imminent. Daily NK, a Seoul-based news outlet with sources inside North Korea, reported that Mr Kim was recovering from a cardiovascular procedure. Source: Read Full Article

‘उत्तर कोरियाबारे दक्षिणसँग मतभेद छैन’ अमेरिकी उपराष्ट्रपति माइक पेन्सले उत्तर कोरियालाई दवाब दिइरहनुपर्ने आवश्यकताबारे आफ्नो देश र दक्षिण कोरिया पूर्णतः सहमत रहेको बताएका छन्। दक्षिण कोरियामा शीतकालीन ओलिम्पिक्सको उद्घाटन समारोहमा सहभागी भएर स्वदेश फर्कने क्रममा बोल्दै उनले उक्त विषयमा दुई देशबीच 'कुनै मतभेद' नरहेको बताए। पारमाणविक कार्यक्रमसम्बन्धी तनावका बावजुद शीतकालीन ओलिम्पिक्सले दुई कोरियाबीचको सम्बन्धमा केही सुधार ल्याएको देखिन्छ। तर उत्तर कोरियाली प्रस्तावदेखि अमेरिकाले आफूलाई परै राखेको छ। प्रोत्साहित शनिवार उत्तर कोरियाली नेता किम जङ्-अनले दक्षिण कोरियाली राष्ट्रपति मून जे-इनलाई प्योङयाङ्मा वार्ताका लागि निम्तो दिएका थिए। भेट भएमा त्यो दुई कोरियाली नेताहरूबीच एक दशकभन्दा पनि लामो समयपछिको शिखरवार्ता हुनेछ। मूनले कोरियाली जनताले त्यसलाई 'सफल पार्न लगाउनुपर्ने' बताउँदै अमेरिकासँगको वार्तामा फर्कन उत्तर कोरियालाई प्रोत्साहित गरेका छन्। तर दुई देशलाई निकट ल्याउने प्रयासमा प्योङयाङ्को पारणाविक कार्यक्रम तगारो बन्नेछ। मतभेद अमेरिकी प्रशासन प्रतिबन्धहरू र राष्ट्रपति डोनल्ड ट्रम्पका कडा अभिव्यक्तिहरूमार्फत उत्तर कोरियामाथि दवाब कायम राख्न चाहन्छ। शनिवार स्वदेश फर्कनुअघि पत्रकारहरूसँग कुरा गर्दै उपराष्ट्रपति पेन्सले भने, "उत्तर कोरियाले आफ्ना पारमाणविक तथा क्षेप्यास्त्र कार्यक्रम नत्यागेसम्म उसलाई आर्थिक र कूटनीतिक रूपमा अलग्याउनुपर्ने आवश्यकताबारे अमेरिका, दक्षिण कोरिया र जापानबीच कुनै मतभेद रहेको छैन।" शीतकालीन ओलिम्पिक्स शनिवार शुरू भएपछि सोलस्थित राष्ट्रपतिको कार्यालयमा हस्तलिखित निमन्त्रणा पत्र किम जङ्-अनकी प्रभावशाली बहिनी किम यो-जङ्ले दक्षिण कोरियाली राष्ट्रपति मूनलाई थमाएकी थिइन्। दुई कोरियाबीच सन् १९५० दशकमा युद्ध भएपश्चात् उत्तर कोरियाका आलङ्कारिक राष्ट्राध्यक्ष किम यङ्-नामले पहिलो वरिष्ठ व्यक्तिको रूपमा दक्षिण कोरियाको भ्रमण गरेका हुन्।
