North Korea: Kim Jong-Un Reaffirms its power

If , with regard to the state of the current regime in North Korea, you needed confirmation, it was the same country's leader, Kim Jong- Un, during his New Year message to the nation, to reiterate that the power structure of Pyongyang will continue to hold a monopoly of power without providing any form of dissent. The physical removal of some officials , and in particular what was identified as the number two of the regime, the uncle of President Jang Song- Thaek , was admitted for the first time in public , with the justification of the need to delete items anti revolutionary party , encouraging their internal solidarity . It is understood that the story just ended may be only a part of a power struggle that is going through North Korea . According to some analysts, the need to strengthen its position as the leader of the young dictator , it would be a response to the growing weight of the internal opposition , which tended toward a loosening of strict control measures and the production structure towards a more oriented to the Chinese model . According to the facts , at this moment would be the prevailing militarist area , which represents the real part of the social Detaining Power , the fight , the whole interior at the top of the regime, it would not be only on matters of ideological reasons , but also because of financial problems related to the allocation of resources risicate in the state budget . For the military spending on weapons is essential to preserve their position at the highest level of society in the country through the technological monopoly of force also . You are talking about , however, a disagreement , some very serious, but everything that happens within the North Korean system of power , leaving the entire population excluded , who learns of these events only by the local propaganda , well run by totalitarian leaders the state. The message direct to the people , therefore, is always to present the nation as one body with the party , which must be granite in its conduct without admitting defections , even in small part , of sorts. It is this exclusion of the nation, as a society in the country, leads one to believe that the message is addressed , as well as other potential adversaries , that, in fact , should no longer exist , especially with other international actors , who could have thought about the possibility to eliminate Kim Jong-Un and his followers from the domestic political scene . One of these subjects may be China, which bears an evil neighboring state so uncomfortable at the international level , to the nuclear issue and for the many North Koreans who escape the dictatorship in Pyongyang seeking refuge within the area of Beijing , although it is true , in fact , that China is the only ally of North Korea is equally true that the elimination of Jang Song- Thaek , who was the main interlocutor with the North Korean People's Republic of China, could subvert the balance up to now present. This option has , however, of the big unknowns, the natural destiny of North Korea in the event of fall of the dictatorship , it is a meeting with South Korea to reform a single state on the Korean peninsula , which could , despite being the lesser evil , not be convenient for Beijing, which is found at the border an ally of Washington. China seemed to have been caught by surprise by the recent developments in North Korea and for the moment seems to await further facts that could clarify the situation and seems to opt for a wait-and- tactics . Kim Jong-Un did not mention Beijing in his official speech , but merely to throw the usual proclamations against the U.S. , which did not represent anything new that could allow an interpretive reading of the intentions of what's going down in history as the more unpredictable leader present on the international stage, more and more conflicting signals provides that by his behavior. Also called for a reconciliation with South Korea appears so frequently, when it is not alternating threats , as happened recently with the troops deployed along the border , and this benevolence might instead mean a reopening of dialogue to be carried out with management team came out on top or even just the communication that some parties will no longer be present because physically eliminated . This is because it is impossible not to think that Pyongyang does not believe in a plot that can start at any time from Seoul .
