North Korean launch ICBM Test - The Other Crisis - New Cold War 2

The White House: Statement by the White House Press Secretary on the North Korean Launch, " The United States strongly condemns the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK)  for its test of a long-range ballistic missile. On March 10th, the United States Government publicly released information that the DPRK’s tests on February 26 and March 4, 2022 EST involved an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) system. We noted that there would likely be further tests in the future. The President and his national security team are assessing the situation in close coordination with our allies and partners.  This launch is a brazen violation of multiple UN Security Council resolutions and needlessly raises tensions and risks destabilizing the security situation in the region. This action demonstrates that the DPRK continues to prioritize its weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programs over the well-being of its people.  We urge all countries to hold the DPRK accountable for such violations and call on the DPRK to come to the table for serious negotiations.  The door has not closed on diplomacy, but Pyongyang must immediately cease its destabilizing actions. The United States will take all necessary measures to ensure the security of the American homeland and Republic of Korea and Japanese allies.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Biden Oval will do nothing, it cant because North Korea has a lot of nukes and has shown it does not care a bit what the US or the UN says.  The latest launches are to remind the Biden Oval that it has other other crisis points, it seems that the US has appeased Iran and the Obama nuclear deal should be back on, problem being that the Russians have thrown a great big wrench to the talks, they wont come around as long as Russia is in the Ukraine or PUTIN is still in power in the Kremlin.  The South Korean people have voted in a candidate for President who will be tougher on NORTH KOREA, of course the South can say this as there are US troops in South Korea and the US will protect the South should the North Invade,  what if Pyongyang invades while the Russians are in the Ukraine, this would mean that US troops would be in combat against North Korea and their ally China.  Also it can be speculated what if China goes for Taiwan at the same time, does anyone think that the Biden Oval could cope with a multi CRISIS event, this blog has great doubts.  Let's hope Biden and the West get lucky and its only the Russians in the Ukraine.
