Americans need Korea to surround Russia
While Washington continues to impose more and more sanctions against the DPRK, Pyongyang and Seoul are trying to negotiate with each other directly. President of the Republic of Korea Moon Jae-in met with a DPRK delegation led by Vice Chairman of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea Kim Yong-chol. The meeting discussed the prospects for the DPRK to abandon its nuclear missile projects, as well as relations between Pyongyang and Washington.
Interestingly, relations between the two Koreas, with all the problems and historical grievances, are now less tense than between Pyongyang and Washington. South Korea is much more likely to influence policies North Korea’s “softer” methods than the United States’s, especially given Trump’s “clumsy” style.
The President of South Korea said that negotiations between the US and North Korea should happen as soon as possible. American representatives reacted to this statement by the South Korean leader with some skepticism, although they described the meeting of representatives of the two states as the first step towards bilateral negotiations between the American and North Korean leadership.
In fact, the normalization of the situation on the Korean Peninsula is not included in the strategic plans of the United States. Indeed, for the United States, the DPRK nuclear program is only a pretext for strengthening its military presence in the Far East and pressure on China and Russia.
