North Korea has warned US and South Korean forces that it will unleash a “preemptive strike of justice” in order to maintain its security. This is a direct response to the South Korean armed forces and US armed forces conducting annual war games, a simulated combat situation in which the two allies practice tactical movements and unit cooperation. The North Korean government sees this yearly training as a practice for invasion and has issued multiple warnings to the coalition forces to the South. This is honestly something that happens every year and honestly it is kind of funny.
Some basics of what is happening: The US (15,000 troops) and South Koreans (300,000 troops) conducted two exercises called Foal Eagle and Key Resolve. This is the largest war game these two nations have ever done together. A few days prior to this training exercise was the UN sanctions on North Korea for testing nuclear weapons. The now infuriated North Korea threatens that it has and will prime their nuclear warheads for their preemptive strike against the pending “invasion”. The US is said to be moving medium range missile defense countermeasures in to the South Korean peninsula, a move China, North Korea and Russia are very opposed to.
So what gives? Is it right for the South Koreans to team up with team America and conduct such large combat simulations? Is North Korea in its own right to defend its borders? What about the missile defense program coming from the US, is there a good justification that Russia and China have such strong opposition about this? Honestly my answer is pretty straight forward: Yes, not in that way and shut up China and Russia.
The US and South Korean war games is a military exercise meant to build a strong working tie between the two nations as well as practice military maneuvers. Could these maneuvers lead to an invasion of North Korea? I guess if they wanted to sure, but honestly this is not an uncommon practice with many nations across the globe. North Korea responds with a threat of nuclear weapons. Many experts are skeptical to the actual readiness of these weapons. Besides, is that really the response to a tactical war game? Definitely not. This happens every year and the training exercise begins and ends all the same. Finally the US has every right to move missile defenses in to South Korea. These are for defense, blowing missiles out of the sky. The article has a fun picture you could color in if you want! These are countermeasures for a nuclear strike. Defense from nuclear attack, come on now Russia and China.
