economic construction
In fact, the resolution adopted by the Third Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee of the DPRK is there. We might as well watch it a few times and trace back to the source, which may be closer to people's hearts.
This time, some people who think that North Korea will carry out reform and opening up basically value this part of the resolution of the Third Plenary Session of North Korea on economic construction. In this part, North Korea does have great determination to engage in economic construction and has done a lot of deployment work, which we must admit first.
In the resolution of the Third Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, we can see such a statement-
Kim Jong-un clarified that at this stage when North Korea has steadily become a world-class political and ideological power and a military power, it is our party's strategic line for the whole party and the whole country to concentrate all their efforts on socialist economic construction. We should hold high "concentrate all our efforts on socialist economic construction and further accelerate our revolutionary process!" ! "Battle slogan, vigorously carry out the general assault of revolution and economic construction.
The resolution states that economic construction is the strategic line of the Labor Party and "concentrating all forces", which shows that economic construction is of overwhelming significance in North Korea. It can be said that the focus of the Labor Party and North Korea is shifting, that is, to concentrate on economic construction.
After North Korea changed its route and strategy, it also deployed economic construction. The resolution said that in addition to raising awareness, it is also necessary to "decisively improve the role of party organizations" and that "the cabinet and other economic guidance organs should firmly become the masters of economic work." How to maintain the position of the cabinet? "All departments and units should unconditionally obey the Cabinet and implement the unified command of the Party's economic policies".
From this discussion, we can see the new power structure formed by North Korea for economic construction: the party, the cabinet, various departments and a chess game all serve this new strategy and line.
In the resolution of the Third Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee, the army was mentioned again, emphasizing that the army is also within the scope of concentrating on economic development. It can be seen that the relationship between the party, government and army in North Korea has undergone profound adjustment, the party's leading position is prominent, and the power of the Cabinet Department will continue to increase. This is also a sign that North Korea has turned from the "military first, then politics" route in the Kim Jong Il era to the "nuclear and economic progress" route. If it wants to turn to the "first army strategy" this time, it is natural to stabilize the achievements of the previous transformation.
To sum up, strengthening the party's leadership and strengthening the power of the cabinet to adapt to the national strategic adjustment of North Korea's vigorous economic development is what we literally saw in the resolution of the Third Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee, and it is also the focus that everyone thinks North Korea should reform and open up.
However, it is not enough to just see the resolutions on paper.
Those who think that North Korea wants reform and opening up may have overlooked a very important premise, that is, North Korea needs international recognition, or perhaps acquiescence to its nuclear status.
As an analysis of a North Korean article in Chivalrous Island, in the Third Plenary Session, North Korea has clearly announced to the society that it is a nuclear-armed country. The first threshold facing North Korea now is largely how to make the international community look at its nuclear status, that is, whether its nuclear status is established. Step forward and engage in economic construction; We can't do it. The situation is still complicated.
It can be expected that this matter will also be the core topic of the next summit of leaders of the DPRK, the ROK, the US and the DPRK. Whether North Korea can carry out economic construction smoothly depends on whether an understanding can be reached on this issue at that time. Otherwise, it is difficult for Kim Jong-un to declare that the current "nuclear and economic progress" route has won, let alone the "first strategy" that North Korea wants to implement next. It is from this point that we can see why the assertion of "North Korea's reform and opening up" is premature.
