I was hearing a western debate on the condition on Korean Peninsula, and there was a lively debate going on about current events.
You know a surprising fact?
Almost everyone agreed that the biggest beneficiary will be China if there was a United Korea, given US troops are called out of Peninsula.
People were playing this scenario that US removes its troops, and Korea reunifies. Who benefits and who loses?
China is the biggest beneficiary:
1. It gets a headache that is North Korea removed.
2. It gets the whole Peninsula to revert to neutrality.
3. Korea will suddenly be far more integrated with China, and the Manchurian areas will see better economic connections. Imagine a HSR between Beijing and Seoul. It will take less time than Beijing to Shanghai.
4. Since Korea will keep getting closer to China economically and culturally, Korea will in 10-15 years become aligned with China in some way.
5. Today Korea is no threat to Japan militarily, because it is kept under US leash. But a united Korea, which is more anti-Japan than even China, will essentially create a regional rival for Japan. Japan will be contained, and will face threat from all sides.
6. Korea is perhaps the only nation, that emotionally understands China. Korea was always supposed to be allied with China, but China during the Korean war chose the completely wrong side. It is very clear now that the Kim is running a dynasty, whose only purpose is to keep that fat pig in power. Not development, not safety nothing. Only keep that pigs arse in power.
I think you should seize the opportunity.
Park Geun Hye would love to be the person immortalized for Korean reunification, and she would be more than willing to kick out US troops, and end her country's alliance with US.
