[The U.S. government’s fraud]
a three-line summary
- The U.S. suddenly pressed Japan to sign a contract that was extremely disadvantageous to Japan
- In fact, there was a back-end contract. An agreement where only 1-2% is cash and the rest can be defaulted
- The purpose was to process it in a way that shows it to Korea and to extort Korean cash.
Since I asked Korea for a lump sum payment, the second IMF is confirmed when implementing it.
- Japan! Just pretend to be pouting.
- I’m gonna rip you off a little bit
- Instead, I’m going to rip out Korea.
- You’re paying too, but he won’t?
- You don’t like Korea either, do you?
The government of the Republic of Korea is a prop.

[Here’s the post]
So why did the U.S. have this behind-the-scenes agreement with Japan.
Experts say it was a strategy to pressure South Korea.
The U.S. actually decided to take very little money from Japan, but asked for a lot of cash from Korea.
In fact, the U.S. put pressure on the South Korean government by imposing 25% auto tariffs only on South Korea and lowering Japan to 15%.
The U.S. intention was clear, trying to pressure Korea with the logic, “Why not Korea when Japan also paid $550 billion?”
Mr. Rutnick called on South Korea to deposit $350 billion in advance, and even offered a ridiculous condition to fulfill it within 45 days.
Paying an astronomical amount of about 490 trillion won in a month and a half was virtually an attempt to plunge the Korean economy into a second IMF crisis.
From the Korean government’s point of view, this demand was simply unconvincing.
Europe didn’t pay a penny in the customs negotiations with the United States, why should Korea pay this huge amount upfront.
Moreover, Korea is an ally called a blood alliance with the United States, and trying to plunge such a country into an economic crisis made us doubt the sincerity of the U.S. government.
The Korean government strongly opposed the unreasonable demands of the United States. He even rejected the expression, “Your feet will be pierced while trying to step on Korea.”
South Korea is providing substantial help to the U.S. economy enough to build 22 factories in the U.S., and the U.S. said it was not polite to its allies to try to rob cash.
Experts are advising that the revised tariff negotiations sent by South Korea to the U.S. should be revised drastically again.
Currently, the amendment proposed by the Korean government states that only about $17 billion, or 5% of the $350 billion, can be invested in cash, which should be reduced to less than $2%, or about $7 billion.
The rest should go in the form of loan guarantees and be processed by MOU, which will be the same conditions as Japan’s behind-the-scenes agreement.
With the revelation of Japan’s economic recovery, there are growing calls that Korea should never respond to the U.S. demand for a donation of 490 trillion won in cash.
Rather, the prevailing opinion is that we should approach more carefully so as not to fall for such tricks by the United States.
Due to this incident, Korean companies’ investment in the U.S. is also expected to decrease sharply.
In fact, Enchem, the nation’s largest battery electrolyte producer, has canceled a $150 million plant investment in Tennessee.
The industry cited rapidly changing U.S. policies and worsening profitability, but fundamentally, it is based on the judgment that the U.S. government cannot be trusted.
Given the ever-changing battery market trends and high labor costs and demanding employment conditions in the United States, investment failures are likely.
Tennessee had expected about 200 jobs, but was left disappointed by the announcement of the withdrawal of investment.
The bigger problem is that the U.S. government’s behind-the-scenes agreement will make companies more reluctant to invest in the U.S.
When the US administration takes the lead in lying, how can we trust astronomical investment and proceed.
The recent arrest and detention of Koreans with legal visas by the U.S. Immigration Service is also a factor that further undermines trust.
As a result, it was an excellent judgment that the Korean government did not sign the negotiations hastily despite pressure from the United States.
Without the Japanese minister’s disclosure, South Korea would have been under pressure to pay $350 billion, believing that Japan really paid $550 billion in cash.
Japanese media said Akazawa’s economic recovery minister had never said he would give $550 billion in cash since the U.S. negotiations,
As President Trump and Commerce Secretary continued to emphasize “cash” and “pay in advance,” the minister in trouble explained. The U.S. side is largely responsible.
Online, “I saw that the U.S. and Japan were conspiring, so I was going to peel off Korea,” and “Trump told Japan to pay 100% cash because Korea didn’t pay for it.”
“After signing such a contract from behind, externally, Japan announced it as if it had paid all 550 billion won and pressured Korea,” the response is pouring in.
In the future, Korea will have to take a more cautious approach in tariff negotiations with the United States.
We have learned that allies are not necessarily reliable, and that thorough verification and strategic judgment are necessary.
The behind-the-scenes agreement revealed by Japan’s revelations became an example of how complex and meticulous international trade negotiations are based on calculations.
