Letting the cats out of the bag.

North Korea seems to be a perennial issue around the political lobbies of the political lobbies of the world. The dictator regime has always been an issue of concern for the Americans and the South Koreans but with its advent and rapid upgrading of the technologically advanced artillery, issues regarding the vision of the capricious regime of North Korea continue to be clad in a nebulous enigma.

Rocket men of Kim Jong Un are having hard days. With so many military exercises, artillery explosion and testing, the North Korean despot is incessantly striking the top headlines almost every day. The immense surge in the military activities of this secluded nation is of nightmarish concern to the think tanks around the world. According to the available numbers, the North Korean army launched eight missiles in the incipient two years of their contemporary tyrant, but since then there has been no looking back. Kim Jong Un has pressed the throttle hard and now the country launches more than 15 missiles every year. The country is also suspected to be making arrangements for its sixth nuclear test. Currently, North Korea has garnered enough power to haunt Japan as well as its southern counterpart- South Korea. But Kim Jong Un seems not uncontended with that much progress. Lately, he has also said that the country is taking huge leaps forward in the development of ICBM (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missiles) which could cross even the Pacific. Though Mr. Trump has replied back to him by saying that this won’t happen, but still the international pundits don’t rely on such fallacious assurance, for North Korea’s nuclear program doesn’t let them deem the nation as a scrawny one.

It is no hidden fact that internally North Korea has been at a receiving end of various maladies. The country is struggling with underfed population, weak army, and a hobbling economy. But, notwithstanding being marred by blights from inside, Kim Jong Un, as well as his predecessors, have somehow made the nation appear as an international threat to the peoples around the world. Though the grandeur of North Korea may look mighty, but a close scrutiny lets the cats out of the bag.

North Korea’s success is in pure terms accidental. The country is not riding on its own success but is simply accidentally exploiting the circumstances of its neighbors. The acrimonious relations between China and the US have led to an extended fling for the country. The US stands well established on the South Korean as well as the Japanese coasts, and this has led to US’s wielding of huge influence in the Indian Ocean as well as strategically pivotal Asian countries. And as the USA is busy channeling its friendship to more and more Asian countries in order to pulverize and tame the Mandarin influences in the area, and in the midst of all this, the Chinese authorities are bound to rank resentment. Though, Chinese are also not far behind and have always vehemently reproached the growing influence of the American Marines on its neighboring shores, but they too, are well aware of the fact that sporadic claims of ownership of the South China Sea can’t suffice for the dragon’s humongous ambitions fraught with the desire to rule the world. Thus North Korea is actually a trump for the Chinese to keep the Americans at bay. North Korea’s serendipity lies in its geographical countenance on the globe.

China is well conversant with the fact that the abdication of the North Korean regime will lead to the presence of gum chewing Marines at its shores and soon the dragon will face impending jeopardy of its dream to project itself as the super-power of 21st century. Therefore China has decided to bring up a skittish regime on its borders rather than the Uncle Sam. This policy started after the Korean war and since then, it has not betrayed the Mandarins even once. Moreover, the development of the nuclear supplies of North Korea has turned it into an even more faithful neighbor for the China since now the world knows that meddling with a flippant nuclear power is nothing less than self-destruction.
Thus one can veritable claim that North Korea is an accidental regime. To ward off the Americans, China is helping a perilous and belligerent regime. But one thing that Chinese are also worried about is the faithfulness of North Korea. Although North Korea is useful for China, but the question of the reliability must also be haunting the Chinese leadership. The soaring extent of its defense advancements is slowly accommodating freedom to the North Korean regime. Its nuclear program and missile testing are making it more and more powerful and soon that day is not far enough when North Korea won’t deem China as a crucial element of its survival. And it is high time that Chinese too realized the fact that breeding nations like Pakistan and North Korea will lead to the genesis of self-destruction. China can’t remain sangfroid after threatening the whole world with disasters. An excessively empowered North Korea will be nothing less than a suicide bomb for the Chinese. Though it may harm others, still the biggest pain is borne by the one who is wearing the bomb armor.
