天安艦沈没事件:韓国政府による参与連帯の弾圧は不当です

駐日本国大韓民国特命全権大使 權哲賢閣下

貴国で活動している民主運動NGOの参与連帯が、天安艦沈没事件の疑問点を指摘する文書を国連安保理に送ったところ、政府当局者や与党幹部から利敵行為であると非難され、検察が国家保安法の嫌疑で参与連帯の捜査を開始したことを知り、驚いています。

こうした政府当局者や与党幹部は、参与連帯とその行為に対して「大韓民国のアイデンティテーの脅威となる」「自主解散すべき」「国益に反する」などのほかに、「安全保障の問題で政府に反する立場の文書を送るケースがあるのか?そんなNGOがいるとは聞いたことがない」などと語っているとのことです。

国益論が大手を振るう危険性をよく示す例ですが、これは日本でも他人事ではありません。民主が国会議員定数の削減で国会から民意を剥奪し、委員会定数削減や官僚答弁禁止=官僚隠しを含む国会改革(第2次政治改革詐欺)で国会機能を弱体化して内閣の権限を強化しようとし、その成果の上に立って自民などが国民主権を切り崩す改憲を狙っているからです。

事故を起こした貴国の軍隊が事故の調査を主導すること自体に正当性がありませんし、報告書を私も読みましたが、その内容は疑問だらけで信憑性はありません。

下記写真は船底の切断箇所を示すものです。従って、同報告書が主張するように沈没原因が魚雷の爆発がもたらしたバブルジェットだとすれば、このバルブジェットが直撃した箇所ということになります。

船首と船尾を結ぶ方向にさびと、ペンキが剥脱した痕と思われる筋がいくつも走っています。こうした筋状の痕跡は通常、気体のように圧力が均一の流体などではなく、硬い平板などの物体が船底に同方向で移動しながら接触し、強く接触した筋状の領域でペンキが剥がれる場合などに発生するものです。

下記写真で示される安定板のさび方についても同様です。

さらに、スクリューのブレードが船首方向に曲がっていることを確認できます。

以上の事実だけからも、事故に座礁が関与していたことが合理的に推測され、参与連帯でなくとも調査結果に疑問を感じるのは当然です。

参与連帯に対する捜査は不当であり、一刻も早く止めるようお願いします。

STOP Oppression & Prosecutors’ Investigation on PSPD


Urgent Letter to Friends, Human Rights Defenders and Peace Activities


Dear Friends, Human Rights Defenders and Peace Activities

People’s Solidarity for Participatory Democracy (PSPD), a watchdog NGO in South Korea established in 1994, urgently appeals to the international community for support and solidarity. PSPD has been oppressed and threatened by the Lee Myung-bak government.

PSPD sent a report ‘PSPD's Stance on the Final Investigation Report on the Cheonan’ to the members of the UN Security Council on June 11, 2010. The report raised questions, which still need answers and clarifications, on the government investigation result and called upon the UN Security Council to make a decision heavily prioritizing peace on the Korean Peninsula.

As all of you are well aware, NGOs’ consultation and communication with the UN is a right stated in the UN Charter, and NGOs like everyone are granted to exert fundamental rights such as the freedom of opinion and expression. However, the Lee Myung-bak government is accusing PSPD as unpatriotic and PSPD’s report as ‘against national interest and security.’ It is also arguing that PSPD’s letter to the UN Security Council is benefiting the enemy, North Korea, which denies its involvement in the Cheonan incident. In addition, it fallaciously asserts that it is out of the ordinary that an NGO holds a position contrary to its government.

Right after official accusations from the government, on June 16, 2010, the Prosecutor’s Office initiated an investigation on whether PSPD violated the National Security Law, of which the UN recommended its abolition and whether sending a report to the UN Security Council is defamation under the Korean criminal law. Accordingly, the Prosecutor’s Office plans interrogations of PSPD staff members.

The Blue House (the presidential house of the ROK), the Prime Minister, and the Grand National Party’s (the current ruling party of the ROK) floor leader, among others, officially denounced PSPD as below.

On June 15, 2010, the Grand National Party, Spokesperson, Hae Jin Cho stated that “PSPD’s behavior is a typical enemy-benefiting behavior… Harsh constitutional measures must be imposed on those who try to sell/betray the country while hiding behind the freedom and democracy.”

On June 15, 2010, the Grand National Party’s floor leader, Moo Sung Kim stated that “I think that (such behavior) is enemy-benefiting behavior that threatens the identity of the Republic of Korea and injures our national security… Even though South Korea is a democratic country guaranteeing freedom of expression, I cannot tolerate such irresponsible, pro-DPRK conduct benefiting the enemy… PSPD should voluntarily dissolve… (PSPD) must pay price.”

On June 14, 2010, the spokesperson of the Blue House stated that “this is a shameful and worrisome situation… I really want to ask PSPD their underlying purpose in engaging in such behavior.”

On June 14, 2010, the Prime Minister Un-Chan Chung stated that “I wonder of what nationality they (PSPD) are. Such actions are against national interest. It (PSPD’s actions) dishonored and shamed our country.”

On June 15, 2010, the 2nd Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade Chun, Yung-woo replied for the question “Are there any cases that a NGO sends a contrast position paper against the government on the security issue”, “ I have never heard of that there are such NGOs, and document sent by a NGO cannot be a UNSC document.”

PSPD believes that diplomacy and security policy should be under the citizenry’s watch and democratic control. National Security and diplomatic policy should not be monopolized by military and diplomatic authorities. As a member of the international society, PSPD will continuously make every effort to advance the universal goals of democracy and peace through its activities as a political watchdog.

Sincerely Yours
