supposed to work in war time, factories from the last century. that's bringing b like him. now he's a professor of international studies at hand. cook university, all 4 and studies and he's a fema south queen, promising joins us now from so good to have you with us. this is the 1st time that we're seeing a japanese e to in. so in, around about 5 years, how significant is it? it's very significant because for the past 5 years to find that conversations between the 2 countries have been a very low point. and some of the people make arguments that the previous president of korea, jay and his government has created a situation where, you know, korea took actions and so on. and it changed the overall dynamics. and now we have a lot of things to, to be fixed. and during that time for 5 years defined, that's our relationship was very low, low point,
11:05 am
and that's what of march about 2 months ago. you know, prison unit visit, poke you had the by that's will summit. and now heavy to see that in town is a very important step towards fixing the bilateral relationship that has been on the downside for the last 5 years. so wants change, why the flurry of diplomatic activity now the number one is inquiry or we have a different government the previous government that created a situation where a situation where things were being made difficult was done by the progress of government that has a different view about the by that the relationship with japan more hawkish view, but here can service department believes that we really need to improve the relationship. it depends for the sake of maximizing national security in dealing with north korea and china. so that belief is very strong. second point is united states also hold that believe, very strong. so together with the united states,
11:06 am
you know, here, korea and japan are the expect to, to work hard, you know, to create a situation where people feel safer as so that's what's going on. the, the, the realization on this side or yeah, and then very strongly man from washington as well. and won't start to see that he is a prime minister. that's a really understands the, the by that to him. this issue very well. and he's a little bit detached from very hawkish hardliners in japan, one to go strongly against a, you know, opposed to the, against the korean national needs to be met. so you see that it is free. uh, so it, these combination of bind in to see that and you hear a create this situation where we're having this very active uh, somebody. okay. you know, interaction between, all right, so, so the latest might be keen to make amends, but do they have the backing of the public both in south korea and japan in japan there is
11:07 am
a strong voice against this kind of do you see those efforts that we know for sure inquiry a problem seems to be even more serious costs continue to have pointed out roughly depending on which clause you're talking about. but generally about 30 percent of the people in these hearing for yep, supports president use move this way, but 60 percent oppose the few. so it's a one to to balance here. so that's what president you is up against. and he's carrying out a very difficult struggle at this moment in time. of course, always lame launch in this region. it's the important training partner for both sides. how difficult is it for them to balance the relationship with badging on washington? yeah, of course, you know, china has to be dealt with continue to be dealt with. the thing is realization is growing here in just in this country, particularly for the past several decades. when north korea was escalating the i press 2 to gain more nuclear weapons. china has not been met and it has not made
11:08 am
much difference. hm. and so we have to prepare ourselves in dealing with north korea year, and china is not the size we should rely on the united states and japan are the size we have to work with. so in this, as china is important economically and then it'd be about possible sense, but still for the national security. china as has not shown that it's a country political outlined, the career can rely on. so the choices being may, even though this is a very difficult choice, would be made by it and things talk to you. kevin, thanks for taking. the time's join us that from so the death toll from floods and lines lines that swept away homes and the democratic republic of congo has risen to more than 200. as according to state media, south keeping the province has been the west head area since heavy rain full began
