An important diplomatic step was seen between South Korea and China during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference. Recently elected South Korean President Lee Jae Myung on Saturday hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping for the first time. This meeting was held in Gyeongju city of South Korea, where both the leaders discussed many important issues in the state level meeting and dinner. The special thing about this visit was that Xi Jinping reached South Korea after almost a decade, which is expected to bring new energy in the relations between the two countries.

During the meeting, President Lee Jae-Myung appealed to China for help in resuming talks with North Korea. He said that the recent high-level talks between China and North Korea are indicating that a favorable environment is being created for talks with North Korea. “I want South Korea and China to take advantage of this positive environment to strengthen strategic communication and resume dialogue with North Korea,” Lee said.

Why is this meeting important?

According to Reuters report, this meeting was important for both the countries from economic and political point of view. Lee Jae-Myung gifted Xi Jinping a high-quality wooden board for the traditional Chinese strategic game ‘Go’ during the meeting. He said that South Korea wants to bring China closer as its largest trading partner.

What did Xi Jinping say?

Xi Jinping said in his address, “China and South Korea are important neighbors that can neither be removed nor isolated. Both countries should move forward with cooperation and trust.”

What happened between the two leaders in the meeting?

In the meeting, both the leaders also discussed regional stability, strengthening economic relations and maintaining security balance in Asia. South Korea, a strategic ally of the US, advocated a phased approach to North Korea’s denuclearization. However, North Korea rejected this proposal, calling it an “impossible dream”.

Leader Kim Jong Un had said this about America

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un recently said that he will talk to America only if America completely abandons the terms of denuclearization. This statement has increased tension in the region, but this meeting between South Korea and China is being seen as a new hope for restoration of peace in this direction.

A terrible picture emerges in the mind as soon as the atomic weapon hears this word. Even though this weapon has been used only once or twice in history, but its presence has become a big power to decide the direction of international politics and security. Let us understand in simple language what is the atomic bomb, how it works, and what things are needed to make it.

How is the atomic bomb formed?

The atomic bomb is a weapon that makes great destruction by releasing excessive energy from nuclear processes. There are two types of it in the scientific language, one in the process of nuclear fission (fusion) in the other. In simple terms, in these processes, the reactions inside the atom suddenly leave a lot of energy in a sudden and controlled manner, which produces a huge explosion, sharp heat and radioactivity.

Making any atomic bomb usually takes things like uranium or plutonium. Especially the fragmentation of nuclei of uranium-233 and plutonium-239 comes out heavy energy. U-233 and Pluto-239, the process of nuclear fragmentation of these Issotops is the source of bomb.

For which work atomic bombs should be used

Getting nuclear capacity for any country is not only technical, but also political and economic decisions. Many countries have adopted it due to security-worry, regional strategic balance or political reputation. On the other hand, in view of the destructive human and environmental consequences of nuclear weapons, many attempts are also being made to stop their spread globally.

Institutions like NPT i.e. non-proliferative treaty, IAEA and various bilateral-bilateral agreements work in this direction. Through these, it is an attempt to ensure that nuclear technology is only for peaceful use, such as for electricity, medicine or research work.

Effect of nuclear weapons

The effects of nuclear weapons are very broad and long-lasting, immediate explosion, fire and heat as well as long-term health and environmental disadvantages from radioactivity are major impacts. Effect on fetal development, risk of cancer, contamination of agricultural land and social destruction are some forms that do not recover the affected areas for decades. This is the reason that due to human reasons, their control and disarmament is also emphasized.
