Obviously. The Chinese and Russians wouldn't engage in direct combat with the US in this day and age, though. Proxy war or no proxy war.
They would of course provide material support for any resistance, assuming there would be one. However, I suspect the North Korean populace's forced reverence for Kim Jong-Un isn't exactly on the same level as say, the Mujahideen's religious fervor.
>But yeah, for sure this time the Russians and Chinese won't bother.
Is that sarcasm? I genuinely can't tell. Direct conflict with the US is a terrible idea, and both countries know that.

The US has not enough soldiers in South Korea to face CN or RU. RU could probably take out US carriers and planes "at will" with their unmatched rocket technology. The last thing I heard was that RU jamming technology is also far ahead of the curve. And they have a nuclear arsenal to match the US. At the same time, RU has a boarder with NK while the US supply lines would be far stretched. By the way, it was the end of the German Empire when the king decided to "kick the Serbs in the nuts"
