Showing why the Biden’s foreign policy is a disaster, North Korea announced today new, more nimble nuclear warheads, ready to pack inside its Intercontinental Ballistic Missile [ICBM] fleet, now threatening the U.S. homeland. Mired in a wasteful and destructive proxy war against the Russian Federation, 80-year-old President Joe Biden painted U.S. national security into a tight corner, unable to contain North Korean President Kim Jong-un from threatening South Korea and the U.S. homeland. Biden wastes all his foreign policy capital on a suicide mission in Ukraine, pretending he’s going to vanquish the Kremlin. Biden and Ukraine’s 45-year-old President Volodymyr Zelensky keep threatening to topple Putin’s government and drive Russian troops out of Ukraine’s sovereign territory. Over one year of war has left Ukraine is shambles with the future in doubt.
Biden has been completely remiss in letting North Korea continue its nuclear proliferation, enriching more weapons grade uranium and plutonium, building more warheads and ICBMs. When 76-year-old President Donald Trump was in office, Kim Jong-un worked to contain his nuclear ambitions, actually meeting with Trump in a historic visit across the DMZ into North Korea. Trump coordinated his diplomacy with 70-year-old Russian President Vladimir Putin, now considered enemy No. 1 in the Biden White House. Biden tossed decades of U.S.-Russian diplomacy into the rubbish heap, opting instead to fund a proxy war against the Kremlin. Now real menaces like Kim Jong-un enrich weapons grade uranium, build new warheads and launch new ICBMs with impunity. Biden’s self-destructive Ukraine War puts U.S. foreign policy behind the Eight Ball.
North Korea’s KCNA state run media showed photos of new warheads AKA Hwassan-3s with Kim visiting a Nuclear Weapons Institute where the latest tactical nuclear weapons technology was developed. :”It has something more powerful in a smaller space. That’s worrisome,” said Kune Y. Suh, professor emeritus of nuclear engineering at Seoul National University, comparing the new warheads to the 2016 versions. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, 45, hands are tied to fashion any containment strategy for North Korea. Gone is joint-cooperation with the Russian Federation to work to contain Kim from threatening nuclear war against the United States. U.S. media did nothing but criticize Trump for the most successful diplomacy with North Korea in U.S. history. All Democrat and the press did was accuse Trump of Russian collusion.
Now the chickens have come back to roost, with Biden burning all the bridges harming U.S. national security. Because of Biden, U.S.-Russian relations are dead for the foreseeable future, all because Biden wants to beat Putin on the battlefield. What kind of egomaniac would take on the Russian Federation to save Ukraine its sovereignty and territorial integrity? “Those are not limited to tactical missiles but appear to be a miniaturized light and standardized warhead that can mount on various vehicles,” said Kim Dong-yup retired South Korean naval officer teaching at Kyungnam University. Dong-up said the new warheads could work on a variety of land and submarine-based launch systems. What’s Biden doing to contain Kim’s insatiable appetite for weapons of mass destruction? Burning bridges with Russia and China, the U.S. has no clout with North Korea.
Kim ordered more weapons grade uranium in a “far-sighted” way to expand his nuclear arsenal “exponentially,” without the U.S. working with its partners to contain dangerous nuclear proliferation on the Korean Peninsula. Kim claims expanding his nuclear arsenal is designed to keep the peace, with the U.S. and South Korean continuing joint naval drills in the Korean Sea. Kim said North Korea worked on IT-based integrated nuclear weapons management AKA Haekbangashoe or “nuclear trigger,” whose accuracy has been verified in recent nuclear tests. Biden’s provocative foreign policy toward Russia and China has left the U.S. going it alone in dealing with global menaces like North Korea and Iran. Iran recently attacked a U.S. Syrian base designed to contain terrorism in the region. With Russia and China, U.S. foreign policy in Asia flies blindly, no longer counting on strategic partnerships.
Deploying the Carrier Strike Group Nimitz to South Korea for joint military exercise has ramped up Kim’s aggressive gestures. Commentary in North Korea’s Rodong Sunmun, North Korea’s primary media outlet, said that the joint naval drills were “an open declaration of war to prepare for a “preemptive strike” against Pyongyang. With the North Korean military reacted harshly to joint U.S.-South Korean naval drills, tensions have ramped up on the Korean Peninsula. “The frantic drills in the puppet region are not just military drills but nuclear war drills for a preemptive strike . . . pursuant to the U.S. political and military option to escalate confrontation with the DPRK and finally lead to war,” said Rodong Sinmun paper. Burning bridges with Russia and China has cost the U.S. dearly in national security, no longer able to rely on Russia and China to help contain growing North Korean nuclear threats.
