I find it interesting that not much has changed from ten
years ago, in that the same danger and threats that North
Korea poses to South Korea
and the United States
are the same in 2013 as they were in 2003, which was when this article was
written. Even now, despite a shift in leadership and the switching of hands
between Kim Jong-il and his son Kim Jong-un, North Korea is still on the same
path and has the same ideas as they did ten years ago, in terms of nuclear
testing and launching. Obviously, efforts of putting nuclear talks to rest and
averting a potential disaster has failed, since these same problems have
propped up again even ten years later. What can the United
States and South Korea
do to avert a nuclear disaster with North Korea without compromising
themselves? What can they do to persuade North Korea to not follow through
on their threats?
