‘Drink it if it’s safe’: South Korean lawmaker challenges Japan officials to consume treated Fukushima water

It'll be better than a Chinese (who has no culture anymore after they purged it) explaining Japanese culture. Culturally, we have more stories together with Tibet due to Buddhism than China ever will. How's that for influence in history and philosophy?

Lol, China has no culture anymore... what a fine lecture by an Indian whose language, mode of governance and even large part of their mindset were left to them by their western colonial masters.

That's why you fools needed a lesson like that of 1962 war.

So, now you don't contest the Indian influence in Tibet, you are reduced to whataboutery on India. Tibet is just one example.

Also, we still have our language and culture, we didn't ape the West, for context, this is the photo-op of G-20 leaders, and guess who all are wearing suits and who is wearing a more traditional dress. I see two.

Technology doesn't belong to anyone exclusively, do you use paper? I m talking about cultures, that Indian guy says China has no culture, do you agree?

So, now you don't contest the Indian influence in Tibet,

Where and when? Tibet? why dragging in Tibet here?

Buddha was a Nepalese, not Indian. You Indians are Hindus, not Buddhists, there are no connections.

"According to Buddhist tradition, Buddha was born in Lumbini, in what is now Nepal to royal parents of the Shakya clan."

Yeah, please don't put them in some East Asian bracket. All of them have different cultures, different strategical interests and different histories. Don't try to own "East Asia".


Both are under US security guarantee, remember that. No matter how hard some Chinese clones try, it is only a matter of time before they become friendlier.

The Koreans in general hold a more negative view of China than Japan. South Korea is entirely aligned with the Western style of polity, not to mention the alignment with the US.

oh i see, an indian clone with no intention to discussed but all ITS purpose here is to troll like an animal.

As if North Korea isn't going to attempt another attack on South Korea after China invades Taiwan????

they arent mad.

authoritarians and dictators? yes. but not mad.

seeing russia vs ukraine should be enough of a lesson. and if china is busy with taiwan (which means US/Aus/Jap involvement), then there is no one left to save and back north korea. this is just sensationalism.

What are you talking about? North Korea sees South Korea as basically how China sees Taiwan..as a renegade province that needs to be unified.

Why do you think they invaded back in the 1950's?

They've been screaming a lot louder about this than China has been with Taiwan.

N.Korea and S.Korea are like equal entities due to similar size and population, just like the case of former east and west Germanies, they both got recognized and have seats in UN, they are worlds apart from the situation between mainland China and Taiwan.

So somehow you don't think North Korea is actively interested in unification..even a forced one if necessary??

It's up to Koreans to decide, none of others business.

stop with this sensationalism please. they may see it as a renegade province, but like i said, they are not mad.

in the 1950s the balance of power was in their favor, now its not.

Why would you consider them "mad" to invade South Korea?
The division of their country was done by outsiders..not by their own people.

do you really just come up with opinions and present them as facts? they may desire unification, but no one would in north korea will think to invade south korea.

russia invaded ukraine because ukraine was smaller in every sense, and russia had a massive miltiary compared to them, and they would rolled them over if not for nato weapons and support. china can think to do the same with taiwan for the same reasons, they have a huge miltiary compared to taiwan.

Does north korea possess the same advantages over south korea that these countries do over their adversaries? please tell us what line of thinking will lead north korea to believe that they can invade south korea and win, even without US support?
