North Korean Missiles |
I
consider CNN’s coverage of this story a bit inadequate, considering that they
did not get more opinions from the North Korean side of the argument (it is a
bit skewed in favor of South Korea). Then again, North Korean opinions are most
likely extremely hard to get since they are very backwards (in my opinion).
I
think that Obama is doing the right thing going to South Korea to pressure the
North Koreans that their actions will not stand. Obama stated that North Korea
is the “most isolated country in the world”, and he should send a message to
them that aggressive acts such as testing nuclear weapons will not be tolerated
in the present day.
However I believe he and the South Korean
President could do more to stop North Korea from continuing to oppress her
people and stop her from doing such blatantly aggressive actions.
I believe that
instead of just visiting South Korea, Obama should try and contact Xi Jinping,
China’s president, and make sure that he will not ally with North Korea, and
then America should, along with other western countries, stop the oppressive
regime strangling the North Korean people. Look at what North Korea is doing,
they are going to test nuclear weapons, and America is worried about Iraq
having nuclear weapons? I think that a North Korea with nuclear weapons would
be much more volatile and dangerous. America and South Korea should stop North
Korea before it begins to ruin the lives of more people
than its own.
