The recent marked change in the political situation on the Korean peninsula is likely to signal a further deterioration of the situation in the region. North Korea has ended its ethnic ties with South Korea and has become a complete enemy. At the same time, South Korea declared"Thirty-eight"The buffer zone no longer exists, and preparations are under way for routine exercises in the area. This move marks a new level in the relationship between the two countries.
In particular, South Korea's decision to lift the buffer zone suggests that South Korea will be more likely to retaliate by force in the event of a future war. Against the backdrop of the current political backdrop of both North and South Korea taking a strong stance, the situation on the Korean Peninsula is becoming more and more vulnerable to threats and could erupt at any time.
The Panmunjom Declaration, signed by North and South Korea in September 2018, aims to end the armed conflict between the two sides and achieve permanent peace. But after Yoon Suk-yeol came to power, South Korea has seen a marked change in its policy toward North Korea, with a more resolute and hostile attitude. North Korea's ** also predicted that there would be a war this year. Yoon Suk-yeol's foreign strategy, especially his favoritism towards the United States and Japan, and his harsh comments in front of the South Korean team, have made the situation on the Korean Peninsula even more serious.
As a result, the future prospects for the development of the Korean peninsula are uncertain. North Korea and South Korea are on a par in military power, and it will not be easy to win this war. Compared with the contradictions between Palestine and Israel, Russia and Ukraine, the contradictions between the DPRK and the ROK are not a non-reciprocal military struggle. If there is indeed a big war, then the outcome is difficult to predict, and there is a high probability that the two countries will be dragged into a protracted war.
Overall, the Korean Peninsula is now a very unstable and unstable time. If they are still stimulating each other and losing control, it will really be a catastrophe. To that end, the focus on security and peace in the region should be strengthened in order to prevent possible conflicts.
