With the nuclear-use threshold lowered, a regional arms race underway, diplomacy dead and communications channels silent, the flashpoint Korean peninsula faces a slew of challenges.
The Ukraine war is also offering North Korea fresh opportunities to exit its diplomatic and economic isolation, putting even more pressure on South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol as he prepares for this week’s state visit to Washington that was supposed to celebrate the coming 70th anniversary of the U.S.-South Korean alliance.
“North Korea is an existential threat, so we have to prepare for any kind of military provocation, but at the same time, we should come up with dialogue and negotiations,” he insisted in an interview. “But we have only the first component; the second is all gone.” “He went back with nothing,” Mr. Moon said. “Trump later confessed to [South Korean President Moon Jae-in] that Pompeo and Bolton pushed him very hard.”
Seoul has shot back at the endless rhetorical salvos fired by Pyongyang. The conservative Yoon administration has also called prior policies of engagement with the North as “appeasement,” backing itself into a corner, Mr. Moon alleges. North Korea’s doctrinal threats are backed up by serious hardware. Pyongyang has, this year, unveiled a string of game-changing new weapons.
