Yet, the outcome was a thriving country of South Korea and a net territorial gain for the south as well. This is a successful war by the standards of how most wars are measured.
- simonblack 5y agoThere is no 'outcome' YET. The Korean War is still ongoing. Think of today's situation as a non-combat stalemate. much as happened in areas of trench warfare during World War one. (Both sides maintained a quiet watch-and-wait in various parts of the Front, while fierce campaigns took place in other parts of the Front.) A question or two for you. If the Korean War is finished, why are there still 30-40 thousand US troops still occupying South Korea? Why does the US interfere with North and South Korean diplomacy? Why is it any business of the US what North and South Korea agree in, anyway?
