He became Park Jeong-ui’s nephew. – (119)
“Loyalty!”
“Loyalty.”
This is Gaeseong,
The Korean generals entered the headquarters while being saluted by the soldiers.
Gyeongseong is currently in a peaceful mood due to the South Korea-US summit and other things, but this place is far from that.
Now that North Korea has been destroyed, can South Korea enjoy peace without external threats?
The staff members were looking through the documents with serious expressions, and one of the documents was placed on the table.
[The fuel rods used in the first nuclear reactor must be returned to the Soviet Union unconditionally]
It is true that the Soviet Union has provided a lot of support to North Korea so far, but nuclear weapons are a separate issue.
The Soviet Union demanded that North Korea return the fuel rods in exchange for providing nuclear technology to the North, thereby blocking the possibility that North Korea could extract plutonium from the reactor and conduct a nuclear test.
If this happens, Korea will be in a difficult position.
The United States is currently pursuing the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, and clear evidence has been found that the Soviet Union also shares this goal.
Would the United States and the Soviet Union tolerate South Korea possessing nuclear weapons when its main enemy, North Korea, is gone?
There is a possibility that they will demand disarmament, not to mention nuclear weapons.
Who will suffer the most if this happens?
It was the South Korean soldiers who played the biggest role in bringing down North Korea, but when things went wrong, they were forced to take off their clothes.
If the Soviet Union and the United States were to fight over the Korean Peninsula, soldiers would continue to be heavily employed, but where would we find evidence that would serve as a flashpoint?
South Korea needs a virtual enemy to develop nuclear weapons, which the president is pursuing.
But the virtual enemy appeared in an unexpected place.
The United States and the Soviet Union secretly signed a nuclear weapons agreement with South Korea.
⁕ Interim Agreement on Offensive Strategic Weapons
– The two countries will deploy 200 launchers in two locations each. They will also prohibit the development and testing of sea-based, air-based, space-based, and ground-mobile interceptor systems for nuclear weapons.
– Limit the number of ICBMs, SLBMs, and strategic bombers held by both countries to 2,600. Also reduce the number of strategic nuclear weapons delivery vehicles to 1,250.
On the surface, it appeared as if the United States and the Soviet Union had reached an agreement to reduce their nuclear weapons.
But the reality is a cesspool,
Didn’t you clearly say that you were deploying 200 nuclear weapons in two locations?
The reality is that the Soviet Union and the United States each possess ten thousand nuclear weapons.
The same goes for nuclear weapons transport vehicles.
The number of strategic nuclear weapons delivery vehicles was also agreed to be reduced to 1,250, but there is no sign of either country reducing the number to 2,600.
So has the ban on nuclear testing in the ocean and space been upheld?
Three years ago, the British satellite Ariel 1 detected unusual levels of radiation while studying the radiation emitted by the solar wind.
At first it was thought the sun had exploded, but it is now more likely that the satellite was hit by a radiation storm as a result of a nuclear test.
The reason this is suspicious is that the Soviet Union and the United States hastily signed a nuclear weapons testing agreement as Britain began its full-scale investigation.
How can one third of all satellites be destroyed by radiation storms in just a few years?
In recent years, the Korean Central Intelligence Agency, which has been investigating the United States and the Soviet Union, has obtained crucial evidence in the UK.
“Isn’t this suspicious too?”
“Yes, we have been observing the Sun continuously, and we have not had a solar flare of this magnitude in recent years.”
“So then it seems like the Soviet Union and the United States are the culprits.”
“We think so too. Our satellite detected a strange light 302 kilometers above the ground. It must be a nuclear explosion.”
If you listen to the British argument, it is almost certain,
What on earth are the US and the Soviet Union doing?
Korea, literally stuck among the lunatics,
Considering what the Soviet Union and the United States have done so far, the incident in which South Korea rained cluster bombs on Pyongyang is nothing more than a joke.
Do those guys have the right to tell us not to develop nuclear weapons?
The South Korean military has concluded, based on the evidence collected so far, that it must continue developing nuclear weapons.
“The United States will certainly demand that you oppose the development of nuclear weapons and reduce arms. We must take action before the President is threatened.”
“What do you want to do?”
“We need to demonstrate in support of the development of nuclear weapons. Now is not the time for us to be maintaining order here.”
“You call that talking? That’s leaving your post. That’s desertion.”
“Then let’s mobilize the cadets. We can’t just sit back and do nothing.”
Army Chief of Staff Jang Do-young planned a demonstration mobilizing cadets from the Korea Military Academy.
Shouldn’t we show our will to the United States in this way?
After much deliberation, the elders decided to protest.
There was an incident during the last Shanghai War where a large number of generals were discharged. What if generals are discharged again this time because of American influence?
I decided to hit the player before that.

“Korea is on it’s way to nuclear weapons!! It is a legitimate!!”
= South Korea is developing nuclear weapons!! It’s legal!!
“USA Don’t mess with us!!”
= America, don’t interfere!!
“We die for the sake of our country and my President!!”
= We die for our country and for your Majesty!!
This is Korea,
President Hubert Humphrey and other U.S. government officials were shocked and backed down by the protesters who took to the streets.
I’m on my way to meet the President of Korea, but where did all these people come from? What’s even more surprising is that the leaders of the protest are cadets from the Korea Military Academy.
Even though the United States is the most powerful country in the world, President Humphrey was just a guest here, and it was natural for him to feel intimidated in front of hundreds of Korean military cadets.
The police were also taken aback by the surprise protest.
The police officers in charge of escorting the US President quickly mobilized to fight the fire.
“What are you guys?!! Where the hell are you crawling out of?!!”
Beep~!! Beep~!!
“Back off!! Back off!! Do you all want to get arrested?!!”
“Long live the Republic of Korea!! Long live!!”
“America, stop interfering in Korea’s internal affairs!!”
“Why can’t you do it and we can’t?!! We all know you conducted a nuclear test in space!! England knows too!!”
“Those who have 10,000 nuclear weapons are shouting against nuclear weapons?!! You hypocrites are hilarious!!”
“Do you think I don’t know that you’re trying to tame Korea?!!”
“Spies who came to spy on Korea!! Do you think you are qualified to meet our President?!!”
The US President’s car was hit with punches and kicks.
President Humphrey saw with his own eyes the anti-American sentiment in Korea that he had only heard of through rumors.
If even the cadets of the Korea Military Academy are like this, what must the leaders of Korea be thinking?
Everyone pretended to be calm, but U.S. government officials realized that the situation was more serious than they thought.
“Your Majesty, let’s go back. It’s too dangerous here.”
“No, just go.”
Despite his aides’ urging him to turn back, President Humphrey headed to the government building under an escort from the Korean police.
I know there’s a tiger there, but I can’t come all the way here and go back empty-handed.
The nuclear weapons issue is one that President Humphrey also takes seriously. Isn’t the Korean president pushing for the development of nuclear weapons because of the actions that the United States and the Soviet Union have committed in the past?
In order to prevent South Korea from arming itself with nuclear weapons, it is important for the United States to show its true colors, and President Humphrey accepted the cadets’ protest as such.
But the road was completely blocked as police and protesters mixed together.
It was well past the scheduled departure time, but the car still hadn’t arrived at its destination.
***
“The cadets of the military academy?”
“Yes, Your Majesty, it seems like it was the generals’ plan.”
“Is there any evidence?”
“What do children know? They would never have committed such a terrible act on their own.”
This is the Korean government building,
I was informed of an incident that occurred on the street.
The cadets’ words are not unreasonable, but a summit is something that is done with an iron plate on one’s face.
Since the US doesn’t have nuclear weapons, would it tell South Korea not to develop nuclear weapons?
Disarmament? That kind of nonsense isn’t worth listening to.
But the president is in a position where he has to at least pretend to listen to the United States, so the students’ protest here is of no help to the country.
Who was behind this protest will be discussed later, but an order was given to send 500 armed troops to disperse the protest.
The US President’s party arrived at the government building 20 minutes after sending the troops.
I shook his hand with a calm expression.
“Thank you for your hard work on coming this far.”
“no.”
President Humphrey accepts the handshake as if nothing had happened.
Well, isn’t it because they are so shameless that they are opposing the development of nuclear weapons in Korea and demanding arms reduction?
If you respond in a nonchalant manner to this type of person, the mood in the conference will lighten.
“President Humphrey has come a long way, so I should show my sincerity.”
“You mean sincerity?”
“Yes, take the imprisoned journalists. I bet they’ve come to their senses after being scolded so much.”
“Thank you. It was worth it for me to come this far.”
President Humphrey expressed gratitude for the release of the Americans.
But my sincerity ends here. It wouldn’t be a big problem to release a few American journalists, but the development of nuclear weapons and arms reduction are separate issues.
And we have also secured preparations to refute the US demands.
I reiterated that the Soviet Union does not keep its promises.
“According to the Offensive Strategic Weapons Agreement, shouldn’t the Soviet Union reduce its strategic nuclear weapons carriers to 1,250? However, according to our Korean investigation, the Soviet Union still maintains 2,600 units. It also possesses over 10,000 nuclear weapons. In this situation, if Korea gives up developing nuclear weapons and reduces its military, won’t that only increase the burden on the United States?”
President Humphrey’s face hardened.
It was embarrassing because the US had never provided this information to Korea, but he still managed to make his point.
“That agreement is something that we agreed to keep until 1981. First, the United States intends to reduce its nuclear weapons by 23 percent and its strategic nuclear weapons carriers by 17 percent by 1968.”
“Well, if the Soviet Union reduces first, the United States will also step back. If the Soviet Union does not reduce, can the United States reduce first? The Soviet Union is the same. If the United States withdraws, they will also step back… If this continues, won’t the status quo be maintained even after 10 years?”
U.S. officials remained silent about the time-lapse attack.
That’s because it’s true, there is a real threat called the Soviet Union, and if South Korea were to arm itself with nuclear weapons, it would be a headache, so I’m saying this.
Even if the United States made an agreement with the Soviet Union, it would only be a hamster wheel running on the spot.
So how should Korea maintain peace and gain benefits by coordinating the tug-of-war between the Soviet Union and the United States?
The possibility that the United States would acknowledge the development of nuclear weapons was zero from the beginning, so I put Plan B into action early.
“Here is the biggest concession I can make to the United States. Would you like to hear it?”
“Yes, go ahead.”
“Whether it is effective or not, it is true that the US and the Soviet Union signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. If South Korea were to call for nuclear armament, the two countries would be caught in a situation where they cannot back down even one step. Then there is only one way. South Korea would become a weapons exporter and supply weapons to the whole world. If everyone has cluster bombs, who would dare to invade another country?”
This war proved that cluster bombs have the power to obliterate entire cities.
Because of the obstruction from the Soviet Union and the United States, most countries are unable to arm themselves with nuclear weapons. So are we just going to sit back and suck our thumbs?
In this situation, weapons exported by Korea can be an alternative to deterring war.
South Korea is now a country that can produce 3.2 million cluster bombs a year, and it would not be a problem to spread cluster bombs all over the world if there was demand.
The problem is that the world is trying to suppress the use of cluster bombs.
Haven’t you seen with your own eyes what will happen to Pyongyang in this war?
Public opinion was formed that cluster bombs were the devil’s weapons, and European countries banned investment in Korea.
If we invest in Korea, those evil weapons might spread around the world, and America can just turn a blind eye to that?
If Korea maintains its military and exports weapons to make profits instead of giving up nuclear development, that is the best concession I can make to the United States.
If we can’t admit this, we have no choice but to develop nuclear weapons.
President Humphrey, who was caught in a precarious situation, was unable to take a clear position.
