North Korea has been demanding the U.S. to provide security guarantee and sign a peace treaty. However, the U.S. keeps rejecting the demands.

In January, North Korea test-fired hypersonic and medium-range ballistic missiles.




In return, the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier conducted military exercises in the Yellow Sea for the purpose of show of force in March.





Actually, the U.S. has been doing show of force, using B-2 bombers, nuclear submarines, and conducting military drills with South Korea for decades.



In the middle of March, a new president was elected in South Korea. Yoon Suk-yeol, President-elect of South Korea, backs ‘preemptive strike’ to stop North Korean hypersonic attacks. South Korea may join QUAD and be used as "Ukraine in Asia" by the U.S., provoking North Korea into a war.



If the U.S. and South Korea provoke North Korea into a war, Russian security will be threatened too as Russia shares the border with North Korea.


Under these circumstances, Russia may take drastic measures to deter the U.S. and South Korea's provocative actions.

For example, what if Russia would provide North Korea with Tsirkon hypersonic anti-ship missiles and S-400 air-defense systems?





Then, the balance of power in the Korean Peninsula will tilt substantially in North Korea's favor.

US aircraft carriers will never be able to come close to North Korea anymore as they have no defense against Tsirkon hypersonic anti-ship missiles. US aircraft carriers will be an easy prey.



Also, B-2 bombers and other US aircraft will never be able to fly close to North Korea anymore as S-400s will be able to detect and shoot them down.



Ballistic missiles and cruise missiles launched from US submarines will be intercepted and shot down by S-400 too.



In return, the U.S. may impose sanctions to Russia. But, after all, Russia doesn't care sanctions anymore.

Even if an aircraft carrier is sunk and a B-2 bomber is shot down, the U.S. would not retaliate against North Korea by nuclear weapons because it knows that North Korea already has intercontinental ballistic missiles that can detonate nuclear bombs hundreds kilometers above the mainland U.S.

According to the congressional testimony by Dr. Peter Vincent Pry, the Executive Director of Task Force on National and Homeland Security, such detonation would generate electromagnetic pulse that would blacks-out the electric grid for a year and decimate the critical infrastructure necessary to support a large population. In one year, up to 90% of the US population could perish from starvation, disease and societal collapse. [1]



Backed by overwhelming military power with both offensive weapons of ballistic missiles, hypersonic missiles and nuclear weapons and defensive weapons of Tsirkon hypersonic anti-ship missiles and S-400 air-defense systems, North Korea will be able to dictate South Korea as to how and in what form the reunification of Koreas should be made.

The reunification may take a form of federal state with North Korea and South Korea maintaining each political system. Two presidents from northern region and south region can govern the state together just like the ancient Roman republic was governed by two consuls. The US military forces will be forced to withdraw from Korean Peninsula.



Once a unified Korea is established, natural gas pipelines will be built from Russia to Korean Peninsula to provide sufficient and stable energy supplies.



Also, China's Belt and Road Initiative will be extended to Korean Peninsula, which will connect Busan of Korea to all the way to Europe.





Thus, the unified Korea will be peaceful, stable and prosperous.

Thank you.
