After Kennedy’s assassination in 1963, the disclassification information indicated that Kennedy was a great leader. Dr. Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr who served as Kennedy’s court historian wrote in his book called A Thousand Days, that it was Kennedy’s “combination of toughness and restraint, of will, and wisdom that save the world.
In the case of North Korea nuclear standoff both two dramatic leaders Kim and Trump would at least resort to some workable diplomacy to resolve nuclear escalation on the Korean peninsula. History shows that the continuous confrontation between the United States and North Korea still carries an enormous danger: Any miscalculation or mistake could cause a catastrophe so exponentially. Both leaders Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump are very erratic and megalomaniacs might push the world into interplanetary wars. During the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, historians have identified dozens of close calls made by some unheeded White house's officials that almost led into miscalculations or mistakes and ushered a serious consequences and retaliation from the Soviet Union. It also believed that the current situation between U.S and North Korea might go astray, for the reason that Trump administration is lacking a resilient diplomancy in tackling DPRK's nuclear issues.
Let’s remember the danger posed by nuclear wars: One study showed that a single 1-megaton bomb exploded above the city of Detroit for example would cause up to 630,000 deaths and injuries from blast alone. And many of those who escaped death initially would ultimately suffer horrific deaths from the effects of nuclear fallout or burns. In all three of these instances, the decisions made by mental deranged leaders can lead to an imaginable suffering if did not involve a grand design or conscious action. Many people have died due to mistakes which could have been averted. And their likelihood of doing so vastly increases if they are made by erratic, impulsive people who lack self-confidence and a sense of history,people like Donald Trump or Kim Jong Un.
The leadership of the United States should handle the tension with extreme care and learn to understand North Korea' morale aspiration. Of course, Donald Trump has done everything he can to bring tensions to the boiling point. In a world brimming with nuclear weapons, the true national security has little arc to do with whether the president can do a better job slinging insults than the leader of North Korea. It has everything to do with avoiding another horrific war and in particular a nuclear war. The willingness of North Korea to limit its nuclear program has everything to do with the willingness of the United States to give North Korea credible assurance that it will not attack them, nor seek to change their regime.
Every time Trump escalates military threats he does more to convince them that their only defense is nuclear arms. The North Koreans saw what happened to Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi when he ended his nuclear weapons program, and they don’t want it to happen to them. And, of course, if Trump abandons the Iran Nuclear Agreement, then the North Koreans will be completely convinced that they can’t trust any deal to limit their nuclear program that brokered by the United States. Instead, the United States should use strong economic sanctions to pressure North Korea to the bargaining table and provide an off-ramp for them that guarantees their security the same way the Obama Administration did so effectively with Iran. With the advent of nuclear weapons that are capable of destroying our species, human survival depends on our ability to develop non-violent means of conflict resolution that do not involve war. Like it or not, knowledge and technology will continue to spread. Take a note that North Korean officials always seeking dialogue and trying to reaching out to several Republicans and general American citizen as guest to harmonize relationship between two hostile nations. The US and Pyongyang have a directly communication line through UN which known as "New York Channel" as according to While Klingner who also declined an invitation to travel to Pyongyang. But in many case Washington, often confused or have questions about what the parameters of the policies are, so imagine trying to assess Washington from further away, in Seoul, Tokyo, and Pyongyang.
The only long-term solutions to our survival are strong international agreements to limit and then eliminate the use of that technology to produce nuclear arms at all. And to devise political structures that resolve differences fairly and democratically across the face of the planet. This is not a radical idea. Mainstream leaders like Pope Francis, former Reagan Secretary of State George Shultz, and Clinton Secretary of Defense William Perry have all called for enforceable international agreements to eliminate all nuclear weapons including those owned by the United States,Russia and other contries. In the end, any thing short of that leaves our own security at terrible risk. And those who bluster on about making America “Great Again” by wiping other countries off the face of the earth, are jeopardizing the same security more than anyone else.
