South Korea Reacts to Trump’s North Korea Moves

“I make this clear to the Americans,” said Moon Jae-in .. The safety of South Korea is as important as that of the United States. There should never be a pre-emptive strike without South Korean consent.”

Is Seoul going into*full-scale panic mode because of the U.S. action, fearing an imminent pre-emptive strike? The Western headlines would seem to suggest so, but the reality is more complex.

In truth,*there’s little fear*in the corridors of power in Seoul that the Trump Administration would act against North Korea without ample consultation. The only people suggesting otherwise are opposition figures like left-leaning, dovish presidential candidate Moon jae-in, who has lately been slipping in the polls to Awn Cheol-soo, a centrist candidate who has staked out a more hawkish stance on Pyongyang.

Wow. Have you been drinking?
 
It’s not just North Korea. Trump has a South Korea problem, too.

The Trump administration has spent a lot of time fulminating over North Korea's*nuclear threat, but its tough*rhetoric hasn't furrowed brows only in Pyongyang.*On the other side of the Demilitarized Zone, the last frozen border of the Cold War, South Koreans are getting more than a bit concerned, too.

Observers there can point to a range of confusing and worrying statements made by President Trump in just the past few days.*In an interview Monday, Trump called North Korean despot Kim Jong Un a “smart cookie” and said he would be willing to meet Kim under the right circumstances. This came after Trump claimed he wants Seoul*to foot the bill for an expensive new missile-defense system the United States has*set up in South Korea known as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense, or THAAD.

Trump also called into question a George W. Bush-era trade deal with South Korea that was implemented in 2012. Put this all on top of comments Trump made last month suggesting that the Korean Peninsula was historically part of China and it's no surprise that many in South Korea are not so pleased. Some even*told The Washington Post last month*that they're worried Trump may be a bigger threat to their lives than Kim.

Trump's remarks come a week before South Korea's presidential election May 9. The front-runner, Moon Jae-in, is a liberal who is far less hawkish on North Korea than his recently impeached predecessor, Park Geun-hye. He wants to pursue greater engagement with the North, not deepen its isolation. Moon has also pledged a review of the Park government's decision to approve THAAD, which has riled not only China*but also South Korean doves who fear the system raises the stakes in a region bristling with missiles and historic enmities.

“Trump’s mouth rattling Korea-U.S. alliance,” said*a front-page headline in Chosun Ilbo, a leading right-wing newspaper. “There are issues that are far more important than just money,” its editorial said. “If either country keeps reducing the alliance to the matter of money or the economy, it is bound to undermine basic trust.”

The conservative Dong-A Ilbo newspaper accused Trump of deploying*“a barrage of verbal bombs” ahead of the South Korean election. “We hope that Trump will be more careful with his words,” it said in an editorial. “Who’s going to smile if our alliance is shaken? It will be North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and China’s Xi Jinping.”

What a goal post moving LIAR you are. You claimed the talks were because they don't trust Trump.

Nothing could be further from the truth. They have held talks in the past.

Also, citing what a journalist said is NOT citing an actual Korean government official.

You don't shinola. Man, and what is amazing is that you think you're smart.

:0) Can't read either, huh dummy.

I'm guessing the South Koreans have watched Trump's buffoonish behavior and decided they needed to make their own deals.

... and that's exactly what I just demonstrated.

You're right stupid motherfucker .. I am smart. :0)

completely missing both the idea that sanctions are generally unwanted by Europe,
as well as US supplies are a viable competition.
also I'd argue US sanctions on Russia helped reduce LNG transit fees to the Ukraine.

we are like elephants in the jewelry store, smashing and destroying towards our own ends
and not even considering our freinds needs

listen idiot ; I know math is a bit over your head but, the Nord Stream II will carry 55 billion cubic meters of gas per year.
A typical LNG tanker carries 140,000 cubic meters.

Do the math, retard.

Nevermind.
since it is clearly over your head, the US would have to send over a thoudand supertankers a day to Europe.

you fucking ignoramus.

What should he do if Kim Jong Un launches missiles into South Korea and Japan, nothing? Should we just give our Asian allies no hope of resisting attacks?

where did I write supertankers would replaces NordStream2?
Just being an alternate source helps keep Gazprom honest and not able to blackmail Europe over LNG prices/contracts.

http://energyfuse.org/europe-even-modest-supplies-u-s-lng-will-transform-relationship-gazprom/
Russia has the means and determination to hold onto its market in Europe, but in doing so, will be forced to give up much of its leverage over pricing and the way contracts are written. Meanwhile, U.S. LNG exporters will send some cargoes to Europe, but could find it difficult to truly establish a foothold. Nevertheless, the mere presence of competition for the European market and the growing abundance in global natural gas markets will not only put downward pressure on European natural gas prices for years to come, but will boost energy security on the continent and provide Europe with a critical alternative to Russian supply.

‘Shocked’ South Korea leader Moon orders probe into why US delivered four extra THAAD launchers without telling him
It comes as South Korea and China try to put relations back on track after deployment of missile system infuriated Beijing

Moon was “shocked” to hear that the four additional THAAD launchers, deployed to counter the North Korean missile threat, were brought in without being reported to the new government or to the public, presidential spokesman Yoon Young-chan told a media briefing.

“President Moon ordered his senior secretary for civil affairs and head of the National Security Office to find the truth behind the unauthorised entry of the four rocket launchers,” Yoon said.

“He also ordered them to find the truth about why it has never been reported to the people or the new government.”

The deployment of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defence (THAAD) system by the US military, agreed by the government of Moon’s predecessor, was a controversial issue in the May 10 presidential election and has infuriated China, North Korea’s lone major ally.

I just love Rune's "genius" level responses.

He claims to be an actual genius, but his posts speak for themselves.

Poor Rune.
