【新唐人2013年12月14日訊】12號，朝鮮以從事顛覆國家陰謀活動，對朝鮮二號人物張成澤判處死刑，並立即執行。張成澤曾多次訪問中國，是聯繫中、朝關係的最重要人物。張成澤落馬後，中共給張成澤的親信提供政治庇護。不過張成澤遭處決後，中共立即通過官媒，呼籲朝鮮一號人物金正恩訪華。有分析認為，金正恩快速殘酷處決張成澤，其中包含了敲打北京的意思。
據《朝鮮中央通訊社》報導，12號，朝鮮國家安全保衛部對張成澤進行了特別軍事審判。審判認為張成澤在思想上與敵人保持一致，根據朝鮮刑法第60條規定的罪行，判處張成澤死刑，並立即執行。
不過，韓國首爾《自由朝鮮廣播電臺》援引平壤高層的消息來源報導說，張成澤及6名親信早在5號已被處決。
香港《文匯報》12號也報導說，傳張成澤由金正恩二哥金正哲親率護衛隊逮捕，5號已被處決，這次處決和往常不同，張成澤和5名親信被剝光衣服後放入鐵欄，被120條餓了3天的東北獵犬撕咬，直到吃光，歷時1小時，金正恩和妻子李雪主帶領300多名高官觀看。
韓國《朝鮮日報》報導指稱，5號中共瀋陽軍區第39集團軍3000多名士兵，在中國邊境長白山一帶移動。韓媒認為，可能是中共為應對朝鮮的突變事態。
張成澤遭整肅後，朝鮮副總理盧鬥哲與李武榮已逃往中國，並由中共當局提供庇護。
不過，張成澤被處決後，中共的態度反了過來。 12月10號，《新華社》引用中共喉舌英文版的《環球時報》社論，聲稱「中、朝都應為促成金正恩早日訪華積極創造條件」，同時表示﹕「張成澤落馬證明了金正恩大權在握，牢牢控制著全國局勢。良性的中、朝關係，對於中國來說也是十分具有戰略性」，而「金正恩還年輕，未來將會是決定朝鮮命運的決定性人物」。
紐約城市大學政治學教授夏明：「 中國長期支持的共產主義政權，如果崩潰，對中國政府來說形成了心理上的衝擊，對中國政權形成威脅，儘管他們相互憎惡，中共一方面幫他逃出一些政府要員，一方面要維持跟金正恩的關係。」
時政政評論家藍述：「北京和平壤都非常清楚，誰也不願意失去這麼一個流氓的盟友，因為其它的國家，價值觀跟他們完完全全不一樣，但是北京和平壤這種利益上的互相需要，是不會改變的。」
德國駐朝鮮大使薩佛12號表示，朝鮮軍方因張成澤推動和中國的經濟合作計劃，威脅到軍方地位，因此決定剷除。
日本媒體《外交官》助理主編扎卡裡•凱克（Zachary Keck）發表評論文章，指出金正恩通過清洗黨內開明派張成澤，迫使北京作出讓步，同時認為，在中、朝關係當中，朝鮮左右著事態的發展。
據韓國情報部門透露的消息，張成澤可能因為試圖扶持金正日長子金正男，取代金正恩，而慘遭肅清，而金正男目前正在中國澳門避難。
《朝中社》指控張成澤是賣國賊，並舉出具體事例，如﹕「讓親信隨便賣掉煤炭等寶貴的地下資源」，「從銀行調出巨額資金購買貴金屬，對國家的財政管理體系造成巨大混亂」，以及「以50年為期向外國出賣羅先經濟貿易區的地皮」等。
而這些交易的對象卻是中共當局，「羅先經濟貿易區」於去年(2012年)由中、朝共同開發和共同管理。
夏明：「北朝鮮一直懷疑中共想完全控制他們，而中共又懷疑，他們不聽中國指揮會帶來麻煩，今天進入第三代，這種猜疑就更加的增加。」
2011年金正恩掌權以來，北京一直迴避同這位年輕的領導人進行直接對話，而是把經驗老道的張成澤看成是中間人，通過他來與金正恩建立聯繫。金正恩也多次派遣張成澤出使中國。

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.
