Well said

[@GAZAMAN93X]

F. OPE dont be dicks.. Simple.. You don't see the US invading germany,uk,Australia,japan,etc.

[@FOLIPE]

Jill's Sandwiches I see the US invading many places,.and intervening in many others as well. I don't think N. Korea acts on the premise that the US will treat it like Germany anyway (not even East Germany).

[@GAZAMAN93X]

F. OPE if NK didn't have a brutal regime then everything would have been great. And I think we all know by now that the US government will do everything within it's power to contain Communism.. Even if it means overthrowing governments and installing someone else by arming rebels.

[@FOLIPE]

Ok, so let's break this down. First: Libya, Syria and Iraq were not about fighting communism. This is not about communism, only, it is about world supremacy, and in East Asia, trying to contain China (good luck with that). Second: I know the US is ready to do anything to fight its enemies. I am just arguing that its methods are stupid and backfire sometimes (Afghanistan, Al-Quaida, ISIS, you name it); and, specially, that from THE POV OF THE OTHER SIDE, it makes sense to act the way N. Korea and Iran act because the US is not trustworthy. As you said, they'll do whatever pleases them. What I am saying is that it doesn't always work and the world sees right through the american speeches and double standards, when they apply. Third: This is not about "being great" or not, but being realistic. I know the US is hypocritical and all, but let's pretend to be real now. I agree the North Korean government is possibly the worst in the world and it isn't fair to compare it with any other government (even Myanmar)... BUT this is not about bringing democracy or whatever to Korea. For one, I don't think it can be argued that US interventions are good (Afghanistan would have been better if the USSR had won, and Iraq, Syria, Lybia and the Middle East would be better if the americans hadn't intervened directly or at all...). So what about N. Korea? Do you want a war there? Well, it is not my country, not my region, but I'd not want a war in my backyard (let alone when the neighbor has guns pointed at be) just because americans in the other side of the world felt that was necessary. Japan and South Korea obviously don't want to escalate anything, they want (a) guarantees of peace and long lasting stability and (b) a LONG TERM (focus on LONG) plant to deal with the issue. No war, no rebels, no government overthrowing. So, I think the best approach is not trying to turn North Korea into Afghanistan; they, for one, will make sure to raise the costs of any american interference so as to prevent that exactly... and that is what they are doing. Maybe if the US had a better track record, North Korea wouldn't be acting so silly in the world stage. Now, just for a comparison, and assuming you are American, how would you feel if Russia or China tried to do something like that somewhere like Mexico, and then let's say 30 or 40 million Mexicans had to go to the US (like the Syrian refugees crisis) + Mexican guerillas started acting in the South and Southwest of the States (like ISIS or Al-Quaida) + the new mexican government decided it needs nuclear weapons (like N. Korea) + the old mexican army formed a nationalist or religious or ethnic guerrilla in the south or the north of the country (like ISIS) ? I bet people wouldn't bat an eye before condemning that sort of intervention as reckless, anti-democratic and overall crazy... so basically, I hope the US applied to itself the standards it wants the rest of the world to follow. Screw the american exceptionalism, or the rest of the world will come to bite you in the back.

North korea is doing the opposite they are not using it their armaments in order to sue for peace, rather so far they are the ones who keep threatening countries with test missiles and such and the other way around so far the US has only utilized non military punishment notably sanctions and if North-Korea wants those to remove it should moderate rather than threaten harder.

[@Oscar-vv6dn]

@@amineamraoui4397 That is completely ridiculous. Of course, North Korea should not have nukes. They are a provocative dangerous regime, and if they possess nuclear weapons it puts us all at a huge risk. It is ideal that no more countries get more nuclear weapons. That is what we are all striving towards. That is why the USSR didn't help North Korea more because the more countries that have nuclear weapons, and the more dangerous countries that have nuclear weapons, the likelihood of war increases.

Guess what? most of the time it fucking works. Furthermore, it noted specifically in the video how north Korea got something out of their horrible actions- countries would always bribe them with something to stop. So, completely logically, Obama merely tried to deprive them of what they wanted. Just because it didn't work doesn't mean it was stupid to try, or that it was lazy.

They was no treaties signed in regards to that. They voluntarily stopped nuclear testing and blew up their testing site before the first Trump-Kim talks in order to show sincerity in their part. The second summit between Trump and Kim was supposed to get into specifics about North Korea's denuclearization efforts in return for partial to full lifting of UN sanctions, but Trump walked out of the summit with no treaty. North Korea since then has returned to quietly developing their nukes and launch capabilities, and what they're doing now isn't breaking any promises because no promises were made before Trump put the North Korea issue on hold and got distracted by other things. If Biden returns to Obama's strategy, then it'll be solidify North Korea as an unofficial nuclear power and become a ticking time bomb of complete destabilization of the region until the US belatedly comes back to the table.

North Korea saw the end of Gaddafi. 2018, N.Korea watched Trump break the nuclear deal with Iran. The IAEA said Iran is keeping the agreement well. However, it was easily ignored.

The way the video covers the different diplomatic strategies the last us presidents used in tacking the north korean nuclear issue. It also shows that it's very hard to solve. It would take a combination of negotiating with china, economic and social subversion and getting other political leaders on top. What I feel is wrong is that there are so many people commenting here defending a regieme that would wipe them out without a problem. No country is perfect people, but if you wouldn't choose to live in north korea you shouldn't jump so fast to defend a regieme that sends its citizens to death camps.

[@rollingthunder8630]

"What I feel is wrong is that there are so many people commenting here defending a regieme that would wipe them out without a problem" You're talking about the US right? When was the last time North Korea invaded another country? Back in 1948? When was the last time the US invaded another country? Oh wait it's invading Syria as we speak and has taken over 30% of Syrian territory. Your "no country is perfect" is no excuse to defend a warmongering country that has killed millions of people overseas while trashing the one and only country in the world that minds its own fucking business and is known as the "hermit kingdom".
