There was an article about South Korea wanting to reestablish talks to get a final peace treaty and some of the comments were saying that “the USA wouldn’t let them”.
This is probably the best time since the armistice of the Korean War for North Korea to get a treaty on favorable terms. Trump would love to be able to get credit for a peace treaty to end the Korean War.







Of all the irrational policy choices that Trump is making due to his illegal war, lowering the scale of military exercises with South Korea is pretty low on the list, especially as North Korea has been cashing in its weapons cache so Russia can continue fighting Ukraine.
I know that the South Korean military tends to need more training due to conscription, but I don’t think that North Korea is choosing to be a major threat right now. You even have the South Korean President wishing to finalize a peace to the Korean War.
