【新唐人2013年12月14日讯】12号，朝鲜以从事颠覆国家阴谋活动，对朝鲜二号人物张成泽判处死刑，并立即执行。张成泽曾多次访问中国，是联系中、朝关系的最重要人物。张成泽落马后，中共给张成泽的亲信提供政治庇护。不过张成泽遭处决后，中共立即通过官媒，呼吁朝鲜一号人物金正恩访华。有分析认为，金正恩快速残酷处决张成泽，其中包含了敲打北京的意思。
据《朝鲜中央通讯社》报导，12号，朝鲜国家安全保卫部对张成泽进行了特别军事审判。审判认为张成泽在思想上与敌人保持一致，根据朝鲜刑法第60条规定的罪行，判处张成泽死刑，并立即执行。
不过，韩国首尔《自由朝鲜广播电台》援引平壤高层的消息来源报导说，张成泽及6名亲信早在5号已被处决。
香港《文汇报》12号也报导说，传张成泽由金正恩二哥金正哲亲率护卫队逮捕，5号已被处决，这次处决和往常不同，张成泽和5名亲信被剥光衣服后放入铁栏，被120条饿了3天的东北猎犬撕咬，直到吃光，历时1小时，金正恩和妻子李雪主带领300多名高官观看。
韩国《朝鲜日报》报导指称，5号中共沈阳军区第39集团军3000多名士兵，在中国边境长白山一带移动。韩媒认为，可能是中共为应对朝鲜的突变事态。
张成泽遭整肃后，朝鲜副总理卢斗哲与李武荣已逃往中国，并由中共当局提供庇护。
不过，张成泽被处决后，中共的态度反了过来。 12月10号，《新华社》引用中共喉舌英文版的《环球时报》社论，声称“中、朝都应为促成金正恩早日访华积极创造条件”，同时表示﹕“张成泽落马证明了金正恩大权在握，牢牢控制着全国局势。良性的中、朝关系，对于中国来说也是十分具有战略性”，而“金正恩还年轻，未来将会是决定朝鲜命运的决定性人物”。
纽约城市大学政治学教授夏明：“ 中国长期支持的共产主义政权，如果崩溃，对中国政府来说形成了心理上的冲击，对中国政权形成威胁，尽管他们相互憎恶，中共一方面帮他逃出一些政府要员，一方面要维持跟金正恩的关系。”
时政政评论家蓝述：“北京和平壤都非常清楚，谁也不愿意失去这么一个流氓的盟友，因为其它的国家，价值观跟他们完完全全不一样，但是北京和平壤这种利益上的互相需要，是不会改变的。”
德国驻朝鲜大使萨佛12号表示，朝鲜军方因张成泽推动和中国的经济合作计划，威胁到军方地位，因此决定铲除。
日本媒体《外交官》助理主编扎卡里•凯克（Zachary Keck）发表评论文章，指出金正恩通过清洗党内开明派张成泽，迫使北京作出让步，同时认为，在中、朝关系当中，朝鲜左右着事态的发展。
据韩国情报部门透露的消息，张成泽可能因为试图扶持金正日长子金正男，取代金正恩，而惨遭肃清，而金正男目前正在中国澳门避难。
《朝中社》指控张成泽是卖国贼，并举出具体事例，如﹕“让亲信随便卖掉煤炭等宝贵的地下资源”，“从银行调出巨额资金购买贵金属，对国家的财政管理体系造成巨大混乱”，以及“以50年为期向外国出卖罗先经济贸易区的地皮”等。
而这些交易的对象却是中共当局，“罗先经济贸易区”于去年(2012年)由中、朝共同开发和共同管理。
夏明：“北朝鲜一直怀疑中共想完全控制他们，而中共又怀疑，他们不听中国指挥会带来麻烦，今天进入第三代，这种猜疑就更加的增加。”
2011年金正恩掌权以来，北京一直回避同这位年轻的领导人进行直接对话，而是把经验老道的张成泽看成是中间人，通过他来与金正恩建立联系。金正恩也多次派遣张成泽出使中国。

Was North Korea Jang Song-thaek Execution A Signal to Beijing?
On December 12 North Korea’s Jang Song-thaek
was charged with plotting to overthrow the state.
He was subsequently executed.
Jang had visited China many times, and was
an important connection between North Korea and China.
China provided political asylum to
Jang’ssupporters after the execution.
However, Kim Jong-un was also invited to visit China
by official media, immediately following Jang’s execution.
Observers believe that Kim Jong-un executed Jang
so quickly that he can bash the Beijing authorities.
According to a North Korean Central News Agency
report on December 12, the State Security Department
conducted a special military trial for Jang Song-thaek.
According to Criminal Code offenses specified
in Article 60, Jang Song-thaek was considered
to align with enemy ideologically.
He was sentenced to death and executed immediately.
However, “Free North Korea Radio" in
Seoul quoted senior sources in Pyongyang.
It was reported that Jang and six supporters
had been executed on December 5.
Hong Kong’s “Wen Wei Po" also reported
that Jang Song-thaek was arrested by
Kim Jong Un’s second brother, Jang Jong-chol.
It was an unusual execution, as Jang and
his supporters were bound naked on railings.
They were attacked and eaten by 120 Northeast
hounds, that had been starved for three days.
The execution lasted one hour, and Kim Jong-un and his
wife Li Xue Lord, led more than 300 officials in watching.
South Korean “Chosun Ilbo" reported that more
than 3,000 soldiers of the 39th Army section, from
Shenyang Military Region, were moving in the
area of the Changbai mountains on December 5.
South Korea media believes that the Chinese Communist
Party responded to the North Korean mutilation events.
After Jang Song-thaek was purged, Vice Premier
Ro Tu Chol and Li Wurong fled to China.
They were sheltered by the Chinese authorities.
However, after Jang’s execution, the CCP’s attitude changed.
On December 10, “Xinhua News Agency"
quoted an editorial from the English version
of the CCP’s mouthpiece “Global Times".
It claimed that “China should help bring about
Kim Jong-un’s visit to China as soon as possible".
It is said that Jang Song-thaek’s purge proved
Kim Jong-un is firmly in control of the situation.
A good relationship between North Korea
and China is very strategic to China.
In addition, Kim Jong-un is still young, and can
possibly become the country’s decisive factor.
Prof. Xia Ming, Political Science, New York
City University: “The communist regime’s
collision will threaten the Chinese regime.
It will impact it psychologically, since it was
supported by China for such long term.
Even though they loathe each other; the Chinese regime
on the one hand helped some government officials escape.
On the other hand, it maintains relations with the new leader."
Lan Shu, political commentator: “It’s very clear that Beijing
and Pyongyang don’t want to lose such a rogue ally.
This is because other countries
have completely different values.
The need of interest between Beijing and
Pyongyang is not going to be changed."
On December 12, German Ambassador to the DPRK
Saffo said the North Korean military eradicated Jang
because the economic cooperation program with
China he promoted threatened it’s military status.
Zachary Keck, Assistant Editor
for Japans ‘Diplomat’ commented.
Kim Jong-un forced Beijing to make concessions
by purging Jang from within the party.
It also believes that relations between China
and North Korea are controlled by North Korea.
According to information from South Korean intelligence,
the execution might be because Jang supported Kim Jong’s
eldest son Kim Jong Nam, in replacing Kim Jong-un.
Kim is currently in exile in Macao, China.
“KCNA" Jang was accused of being
a traitor, with specific examples cited;
“letting cronies sell coal and other
valuable underground resources";
“take out huge sums of money from the bank
to buy precious metals and make a big mess
of the country’s financial management system";
and “selling the land of Rason economic and trade
zone to foreign country for a period of 50-years".
These objects of transaction involved the Chinese authorities.
The “Rason economic and trade zone" was
co-managed and co-developed by China and North Korea.
Xia Ming: “North Korea suspects that
the CCP wants to fully control them.
The CCP suspects that they will have trouble,
if they don’t listen to the Chinese regime.
Such suspicion has increased."
Since Kim Jong-un took power in 2011,
Beijing has avoided direct dialogue with
Kim Jong-un, but contacted him through Jang.
Jang was repeatedly sent as an ambassador to China.
