The United States and South Korea have massed heavy forces to oppress North Korea.
The Ministry of Defense of Korea directly declares that the North Korean regime will end!
Faced with such a situation, North Korea directly appealed to China for help.
What happened in just a few days? What preparations has China made in the face of this conflict?
Korea and North Korea have made another storm, mainly because the United States is behind it. The United States itself has not cleaned up its mess in the Middle East, and now it is beginning to muddy the waters of East Asia again.
In early October, a small drone suspected to have been sent from Korea flew directly over the 38th parallel and ran to Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, and even stayed over the office area of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, which is almost the core part of North Korea.
And this drone is just for distributing leaflets, and it is not an ordinary leaflet, it is anti-DPRK propaganda!
Sprinkle "reactionary" leaflets in the heart of North Korea! This can make North Korea angry.
The North Korean side immediately jumped to its feet and strongly condemned this behavior, and Kim Yo-jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, also released harsh words.
"If Korea drones are spotted again over Pyongyang, there will be a tragic tragedy," she said. "
After the harsh words, the DPRK side quickly took military action.
The General Staff of the Korean People's Army gave a stern order, saying that if it saw something flying over in the future, it would go directly to a state of readiness for firing without warning.
Since then, the highways along the border between the two Koreas have been directly bombed.
As of noon today, North Korea had also blown up some sections of the Gyeongui Line and the Donghae Line connecting the two Koreas. The bombed-out sections were north of the military demarcation line between the two Koreas, which is in the area controlled by North Korea.
In doing so, North Korea is clearly demonstrating to Korea.
In the face of such a tough attitude of North Korea, Korea is not to be outdone.
First, it explained that the drone was not dropped by Korea, and then the Korea Ministry of Defense said that if North Korea dares to endanger the safety of Korea citizens, the North Korean regime will be completely ended.
Many people are beginning to suspect that there may be a shadow of United States behind these drones.
The drone looked like equipment from the Korea Army, but Korea said it was not placed by them. Those who have the ability to use Korea's military equipment, the US military stationed in South Korea is a very likely answer.
Second, the United States has been doing things in East Asia recently. They say it's to respond to the North Korean threat, but in reality there may be other purposes.
For example, the United States may want to upset the economic order in East Asia by creating tensions.
Recently, the global economic situation has not been good, and a lot of money is flowing to China, because the Chinese economy is relatively stable. United States may not be too happy to see this.
So they may want to create tensions in the region to stop the money from flowing into China.
More importantly, United States now wants to contain China's development on a global scale. In the Middle East, United States has gotten into a bunch of trouble.
If they can create some trouble in East Asia as well, they can contain China in two places at the same time, distracting China's attention and resources.
On October 6, the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and North Korea, in addition to the phone call between the two sides to celebrate, the North Korean side inevitably revealed the current international situation, and perhaps hoped that China could help in this regard.
Therefore, China immediately took military exercises, carrying out a large-scale military exercise called "United Sword-2024B".
The exercise mobilized a number of arms of the army, navy, and air force: first, military training to keep the army in combat condition at all times; the second is deterrence, telling those countries that want to make trouble to weigh up; The third is to show determination and let everyone know that China's determination to safeguard national interests is ironclad.
In addition to this, China has also conducted round-the-island exercises in the waters around Taiwan.
Although it is most desirable that this is just a military exercise, there are people who do not know each other, and China is ready to deal with possible conflicts.
These actions pose a dilemma for the United States. United States is now in a dilemma:
Keep stirring up trouble, you may make things bigger, and you won't be able to bear it; Choose peace, but you are afraid of being called weak.
So United States is now in a dilemma and very entangled.
China is very wise at this time. Through these military actions, China is actually putting pressure on United States to force United States to move in the direction of peace.
It can be said that this approach will not exacerbate the contradictions, but can also achieve the goal, which can be said to be very wise.
After all, some time ago, United States was eyeing North Korea.
They righteously said that they wanted to help Korea deal with the potential threat from North Korea, so they directly decided to station troops in Korea and increase their military power.
Not only that, but they also called the military forces of 18 countries, including United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
The battle was exactly the same as when the Korean War broke out in 1950.
In doing so, the United States wants to re-establish its prestige in East Asia.
They may feel that they have made a mess in the Middle East and that they have withdrawn their troops in Afghanistan, so they need to find a presence elsewhere. East Asia, especially the Korean Peninsula, has always been a key focus for United States.
United States claims that although they are there for Korea to deal with the North Korean threat.
But everyone knows that although the DPRK talks mighty, in fact its strength is not worth mentioning compared with United States. So United States is doing this more like looking for an excuse to re-intervene in East Asian affairs.
As for the current situation, to put it bluntly, the three sides of United States, Korea and North Korea are testing and deterring each other.
United States wants to reassert its prestige in East Asia, Korea wants to protect its security, and North Korea wants to safeguard its interests and status.
None of the three parties really want to fight, but none of them are willing to show weakness.
This situation is actually quite dangerous. Because everyone is threatening each other, if either side misjudges the situation or acts aggressively on the spur of the moment, it is likely to lead to a conflict that no one wants to see.
For neighboring countries, especially China, this situation is also a headache.
On the one hand, China does not want to see the situation on the Korean Peninsula spiral out of control, which could affect China's security and economic interests. On the other hand, China does not want to see United States's influence in East Asia expand.
As a regional power, China is highly concerned about the situation on the Korean Peninsula. On the one hand, it called on all parties to exercise restraint through diplomatic mediation, and on the other hand, it also carried out military exercises to demonstrate strength in order to maintain regional stability. China's position is to oppose any provocative acts that may trigger conflicts, and advocates resolving differences through dialogue and consultation.
Despite the current tensions, none of the parties seems willing to escalate the situation to the level of a military conflict. However, if the United States and North Korea continue to escalate pressure on each other, the possibility of an unexpected incident cannot be ruled out. China will continue to play a constructive role in promoting the peaceful settlement of the Korean Peninsula issue.
In general, the situation on the Korean peninsula remains in a delicate balance. All sides are acting cautiously to safeguard their own interests and prevent the situation from spiraling out of control. The future will depend on the policy choices of the United States and North Korea, as well as the coordinated efforts of regional powers. Maintaining peace and stability on the peninsula remains a long-term and arduous task.
