In recent months, the North Korean government has been accelerating the pace of missile tests. Under the pressure of the United States and other Western countries, defending the motherland with a strong military has become a priority goal of the North Korean government. Days after North Korea tested its most powerful intercontinental missile, in just one day, more than 800,000 North Koreans signed up or returned to fight U.S. imperialism. The situation on the Korean peninsula is becoming more and more critical, and if this trend continues, conflict may one day break out.
North Korea's military confrontation with the United States and South Korea
Not long ago, the United States and South Korea began the largest joint military exercise in nearly five years. Before the exercise, the North Korean government publicly shouted at the United States and South Korea in an effort to force the exercise to stop. In the face of North Korea's warnings, the United States and South Korea have maintained a high-profile posture, trying to use joint military exercises as a response to North Korea's continuous missile tests. Not surprisingly, North Korea responded in a similar way, with the United States, South Korea, and North Korea officially unfolding.
Just a day after North Korea launched its ballistic missile into the waters between South Korea and Japan, more than 800,000 students and workers signed up to fight the United States, including many North Koreans seeking re-enlistment, according to North Korean media reports. North Korean media saw this scene as a manifestation of North Koreans' love for the motherland and a strong patriotism. It is understood that the recruitment activities of the North Korean government were carried out during the joint military exercises conducted by the United States and South Korea.
According to South Korean and Japanese assessments, the Pyongyang government recently launched another ballistic missile, flying about 500 miles over North Korea and landing in the waters off North Korea's east coast. There have been no reports of injuries as a result of the launch, and Japan says the missile landed outside its exclusive economic zone. North Korea cited joint military exercises between the United States, Japan and South Korea as the reason for its launch and vowed to respond with overwhelming force.
In response, the Pentagon said that this is a successful military deterrent to North Korea. Pentagon officials believe that while North Korea responded with a missile test, it did not attack South Korea or the United States. Therefore, the United States will continue to expand its military deterrence against North Korea together with its allies Japan and South Korea.
Or war on the Korean Peninsula?
There is no doubt that U.S. and South Korean military deterrence measures could provoke a backlash from North Korea and strengthen its threat, thereby increasing regional tensions. North Korea may retaliate further in the future, such as conducting missile tests or other military operations. This will further escalate military tensions, and if the United States and South Korea blindly fight back, this may trigger unease and protests among the South Korean people, leading to social instability.
In order to avoid the outbreak of war, all parties need to remain calm and take calm and rational actions to maintain regional peace and stability.
