The USA and Russia's War and its Impact on North Korea

Abstract

The continuous hostility between the United States of America and Russia affects the Korean peninsula as it threatens the existence and security of the two Koreas. This paper examines the implications of the USA-Russia war on Korea in the geopolitical society with an emphasis on destructive technologies as nuclear weapons and cyber ones. Presumably, Trump will consolidate cooperation between the US and South Korea based on military and diplomatic, while Russia may supply the Korean North military and technical assistance, thus intensifying the division on the peninsula. Theoretical perspectives such as realism and liberalism provide understanding of the rationale and behavior of the concerned states, with reference to the concepts of power, security and cooperation. Technologies with destructive uses make the situation in regions even worse as regards potential escalations and unforeseen outcomes. They also draw attention to the importance of international collaboration in addressing these threats and sustaining regional and international security.
