    That's a legible sentence...

    But I can't see the logic that a couple helicopters being sent back to America was all it took

    Edit:

    Like, SK has wanted peace this whole time, NK just won't agree to it...

    You're acting like SK didn't want peace but changed their mind? None of that is accurate, it sounds like NK propaganda

    This is just propaganda. True peace was never possible until US maintains its presence on the korean peninsula. North Korea have always wanted peace.

    SK had no say in this at all. Its all what america wanted.

    You're trying to argue decades of established and documented facts as opinions...

    This isn't going to be productive, but no one is going to believe what you're saying anyways.

    So have a good one I guess.

    documented by who? what are you even talking about? until the 90s south korea was ruled by a pro american fascist dictatorship which deemed north korea as its mortal enemy? And after that whenever there have been peacetalks north korea have fully co-operated, these are well documented facts?

    South Korea has always wanted peace but North Korea labels the south as a hostile country.

    It’s probably because the south can afford to feed their people and most of the north would join it in a second.

    Great, when is south fixing its suicide rates, misogyny, expensive healthcare, housing, schooling and overall very toxic lifestyle?

    Maybe the reason NK isnt able to feed its people (even though they are able to do so) are the gruesome sanctions?

    SK is absolutely hostile at it did whatever the US wanted, it never approached for peace. Whats wrong in labelling it as hostile?

    I’m confused are they not able to feed their people due to the sanctions or can they feed their people and the sanctions aren’t an issue?

    Sanctions have made it difficult for them to feed their people initially, resulting in hunger deaths at significant scales, however they have now learned to live with the sanctions (even tho they still actively harm people) and are able to feed their people adequately.

    So you’re saying the sanctions aren’t an issue and it’s their leader’s luxurious lifestyle and nuclear ambitions which are causing the current famine?

    Sounds good why don’t you send an average North Korean an email and get back to me with what they say.

    Do you know what words mean?

    So "until US maintains its presence on the Korean peninsula" only makes sense if they're not there now. But they've been there since the war started.
