US should 'step out' for Koreas to find peace, expert suggests
The United States should “step out of the way” for the Korean Peninsula to find peace rather than continuing its “aggressive” approach, a political expert suggests.
“The two governments in Korea appear both to have the inclination and also the political space to not only drive down the rhetoric and the threat of war but to actually start reaching some agreement together,” said Don DeBar, a political commentator and radio host based in New York, in an interview with Press TV on Tuesday.
He further suggested that the administration of US President Donald Trump should soften its rhetoric against North Korea for peace to flourish on the peninsula.
“The North has always wanted to have an accommodation,” he continued. “President Trump has been so aggressive rhetorically with North Korea and he has certainly done whatever he needed to for the base to not look weak on Korea.”
The Trump administration said recently that any talks with Pyongyang should result in denuclearization but, according to the political commentator, North Korea seeks nothing but security in the country.
“I think the conditions exist politically for the South Korean government to make a deal with the North; the North has always been willing to make a deal as long as its security is guaranteed,” noted the New York-based radio host.
Tensions escalated between Washington and Pyongyang after Trump warned to “totally destroy” North Korea during a speech to the UN General Assembly last month.
