South Korea asked the United States to postpone military exercises for the Olympics

South Korea asked the United States to postpone military exercises for the period of the Winter Olympic Games to reduce the likelihood of provocative actions by the DPRK, the Financial Times reported, citing sources.

According to the interlocutors of the publication, Seoul wants to postpone the traditional spring exercises with the United States until the end of the Paralympic Games, which will close on March 18. The United States is likely to agree to this request, two sources point out.

In addition to fears of provocations from the DPRK, South Korea is concerned that a possible worsening of the situation on the Korean Peninsula will have a negative impact on the demand for tickets to the Olympics and the Paralympics.

The Ministry of Defense of South Korea said that the decision on the exercises has not yet been made. The Pentagon and the US National Security Council declined to comment on the situation. Representative of the command of the US Armed Forces in the Pacific, Dave Benham, said that the United States and South Korea continue to "discuss the prospects of the Key Resolve and Foal Eagle exercises."

In 2017, the United States and South Korea launched the Foal Eagle and Key Resolve joint annual military exercises in early March, which lasted two months.

The Winter Olympic Games will be held in the South Korean city of Pkhenchkhan from 9 to 25 in February, the Paralympic Games from 9 to 18 in March.

And the Russian Strategic Missile Forces exercises in the Far East, too, asked to postpone?

South Korea asks US to postpone military exercises for Winter Olympics

Now it’s not just the teachings, now the wars begin precisely during the Olympics.

[Thrall]

Olympic "neutral" motives:

[dSK]

Three months is not a deadline, the States will not want to lose investment in the next Olympic Games, the "party of war" will then catch up with its own.

In 2008, Georgians attacked Ossetia precisely at the opening of the summer games. And there all the curators were mattress

There was GDP. This is the main thing. Note that the 58th order was received only when the GDP flew to Moscow and kicked Dima’s ass.

Are they here? The 53rd Strategic Rocket Forces Army has long been disbanded.

[pvv113]

to reduce the likelihood of provocative actions by the DPRK

It seems that a mistake has crept in: it would be correct not "from the DPRK", but "to the DPRK"

[Going]

Vladimir, so what is the forecast - the olympiad will be or not.

[pvv113]

Today I got information - the Olympic team of Kosovo refused to go to the Olympics under a neutral flag!

[Going]

Do they have winter athletes? I am surprised.

[pvv113]

I'm generally surprised that there is such a country - Kosovo

[Going]

The United States and the hedgehog have them, we do not.

[pvv113]

Kosovo is part of Serbia !!!

[Going]

And Orthodox shrines.

[pvv113]

Any Serb will say that Kosovo je Srbija

[Jedi]

South Korea is afraid of not getting enough money for the Olympics? Pragmatic and mercantile. You haven’t yet been asked not to plow during the Olympics?

[novel66]

and Eun will salute the Olympics, definitely!

[Jedi]

It is difficult to predict, knowing Un's unpredictability. But the fact that he CAN salute is beyond doubt.

[novel66]

giggling at the same time

[Going]

So I didn’t understand if Eun would be doing the opening fire or he would be asked ...

[novel66]

only Eun knows about it, the rest can only pray and hope

[Going]

That is, they will not ask him?

[novel66]

useless! ask - it smells out of spite, or maybe even twice

[Going]

I do not think that he is so inadequate.

[pvv113]

Comrade Eun is much more adequate than his opponents

[Lexus]

That's for sure! And he does not ask the "guests" not to conduct exercises in their OWN TERRITORY.

But the bastards themselves clearly distinguish between cause and effect! They understand that if the omezikos don’t drag out at the borders of the DPRK, then Eun will not “test” anything.

[Jedi]

So, after all, the USA does not ask permission from South Korea for its actions. Where has it been seen that the master should ask permission from the stink?

[rotmistr60]

What is it all of a sudden? Just yesterday, the United States actively waved provoking the DPRK, and now suddenly realized that with such a strain, the Olympics could fail? Previously, you had to think, and not go on about the Americans.

[novel66]

in general, some arrogance, they ask again! as the owner does, it will be good

[Fkjydjckfrgh]

-Sorry, can I ask you ...
-Ask? Can.

You confuse sovereignty with consumerism.

Other states willingly consume what they do in the South Caucasus, including Russia. Well, the sense of your sovereignty.

I'm not talking about that)))
South Korea is a successful state with a high standard of living. Successfully competes with world leading manufacturers in almost all areas of production.
The highest level of freedom.
North Korea is a totalitarian state with a Swiss-educated leader, his retinue on Mercedes and a poor, powerless people.
Doesn’t produce anything significant.
The question is - what is such sovereignty worth and who apart from Un and Co. needs it?

[askort154]

Once again - "on the tanks!"
The sovereignty of the state is the ability to independently defend its territory and have equal weight in international politics. Therefore, South Korea is an economically developed state, but conditionally sovereign, since it cannot independently protect itself from the DPRK, or Japan, or China.
Therefore, she is forced to live under the roof of the United States. Hope so clear ?!

Those. sovereignty is the ability to defend yourself?

Was not.
The North Koreans worked for my friend in Moscow - they are beggars, but they work fine.
Eun was educated in Switzerland, and senior party workers ride the geldings there.
Where is the lie? )))

[34 region]

Krasnodar, 11:45. Well, who has heard or knows about the products of countries that have become democratic? Well, what does a democratic Afghanistan do? Or Iraq? What about Libya? And what did the democrats produce in Syria? What are the claims against the DPRK? Those that the DPRK has been living in the blockade for several years and does not give up? Here is the behavior of European countries that surrendered to Hitler, is this the standard of relations? And Russia since the 90s? Where did we beat Samsung and Daewoo? Where are our cars and electronics of better quality than in Japan and South Korea? But in Russia, democracy since the 90s, full of pants! And how did the Indians of the USA and blacks from Africa rise technologically?

You are right in everything, but I am not campaigning for submission to the interests of the United States. And in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, nothing worthwhile has ever been produced under any authority.
I mean that sovereignty does not give North Koreans anything, on the contrary - their southern neighbor of the same nationality is succeeding, and they are deep in ....
In addition to the manual.

You can ask friends as well. But a psycho can demand, with which no one wants to have anything to do.

Comrade Eun can cancel the Olympics by a willful decision.

South Korea asked the United States to postpone military exercises for the Olympics

And is it called an independent state? Eun is fighting against this.

[mikh-korsakov]

Kill me, but the story of the dismissal of our team from the Olympics and the apologies of Zhukov does not bother me. The decision to appear under a neutral flag seems to me forcedly correct. But this is "the best of the worst" There is understatement on our part - this is bad - because it gives free rein to a flight of fancy. This story seems to me. It happened as a result of the manifestation not of evil will, but of the mixture of sneakiness, sloppiness and incompetence inherent in some of our officials. If anyone remembers at the beginning of the Olympics, our affairs did not work out very well. GDP says, let’s say Mutko, “something doesn’t stick with us.” Mutko comes to Rodchenkov. “Listen, the chief is dissatisfied, I heard you have some kind of duchess, give it a try. I drank it, I felt a surge of energy and says“ what a dope, it's just a good vermouth, I didn’t feel any dope. ”Well, the trigger worked ...

This story happened when the CPSU nomenclature started to become owners, because party regalia, nishtyaki and power were not inherited. As a result of the liberal coup d'etat, organized by humpbacked trash and cattle fuck, the most low-grade, unprincipled thieves who popped up all the "tasty" posts surfaced upstairs. And since these newly-minted liberalists did not have an elementary ability to use the brain, not to mention knowledge and experience - we have what we have - the most merciless rabble in power in Russia turned out to be in quality, which is below the level of the baseboard. Monstrous incompetence, greed, irresponsibility and impunity - this is a portrait of a typical Russian official of the past 25 years.

I would not go to the games and advise others. Too dangerous in that area.
Can transfer games until America plays enough with the teachings.
