Why relations between North Korea and South Korea are worsening | DW News

[@workoutkorea]

As a Korean, ZERO probability of war. Just two dogs barking at each other through glass door.

[@Swlore]

Can you explain a bit more I’m still kind of cautious even though I’m in the us

[@Panaputra]

That's what most of the military experts thought until Russia invaded Ukraine.

[@MrSnakeFilms]

As a Korean, do you think a war in Korea is less likely under a Trump presidency or a Kamala presidency?

[@workoutkorea]

@@Panaputra Different situation. Clear who keep the dogs on the leash here in Korean peninsula.

[@alexkim3794]

​@@Panaputrathe difference is that this has been going on since the war. Also it's more about keeping their ppl in more than attacking. They can't publicly state this is to prevent people from escaping. So they're using it as an excuse.

Why is DW getting the perspectives of two UK experts ... and why doesn't Germany have its own NK experts? If China is NK's largest trading partner. Shouldn't a Chinese NK expert have been interviewed to provide a little balance to the discussion? I also found it interesting that NK's October 10th events were mentioned; however, SK's October 4th national day was not. This demonstrates the bias in DW's reporting.
