1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,043
North Korea requested for the return of the defectors.

2
00:00:03,043 --> 00:00:05,113
What is the official opinion?

3
00:00:06,044 --> 00:00:09,934
I don't think it's appropriate to tell you now.

4
00:00:12,226 --> 00:00:15,416
What a... they came by their free will and...

5
00:00:15,416 --> 00:00:19,547
so... they can be deported back?

6
00:00:20,496 --> 00:00:25,166
um... that issue hasn't been discussed yet (pause) yes.

7
00:00:31,451 --> 00:00:34,691
They came for their freedom

8
00:00:35,165 --> 00:00:39,165
But.. I'm trying to say the most honest and correct answer here

9
00:00:39,978 --> 00:00:43,978
I don't think it's appropriate to tell you now.

10
00:00:44,665 --> 00:00:46,325
I expect you to know...

11
00:00:46,325 --> 00:00:48,605
that not everything can be disclosed.

12
00:00:51,114 --> 00:00:53,844
(The gov.) is not expecting to deport them

13
00:00:54,450 --> 00:00:56,740
that is a extremely hard answer to get

14
00:00:57,148 --> 00:00:59,158
can't we just show our good will?

15
00:00:59,345 --> 00:01:00,725
what was so difficult?

16
00:01:02,256 --> 00:01:05,266
well as you know, the non-ruling parliment members,

17
00:01:05,266 --> 00:01:06,906
things are not that simple.

18
00:01:11,646 --> 00:01:14,276
Not deporting the defectors is non-negotiable.

19
00:01:14,309 --> 00:01:16,719
It shouldn't be traded for something else.

20
00:01:16,752 --> 00:01:18,862
You shouldn't even contemplate about this.

21
00:01:18,862 --> 00:01:19,372
Be firm.

22
00:01:19,393 --> 00:01:21,443
And the gov. should keep pace with

23
00:01:21,481 --> 00:01:23,741
US gov's footsteps on NK human rights.
