After the two-month lull, North Korea again exploded the situation on the Korean Peninsula. Just another ICBM test caused extreme concern to the world community. South Korea reacted immediately: three missiles were launched in response to the North Korea's tests. Moreover, the country's president expressed concern that in the face of the growing threat the USA can take preventive actions, inviting aggression of inadequate Kim Jong Un's regime against the neighboring countries.
Seoul's concerns are certainly understandable. After all, Winter Olympic Games will soon take place in South Korea, which constitutes an important element of the host country's international image. And the Olympics' security is certainly of the utmost importance. But what kind of security is that when at any moment military actions may start in the neighboring country? Obviously, the White House understands full well that overt intervention in North Korea is fraught with heavy casualties, including, first of all, civilian population. However, according to numerous indications, received from officials, as well as, media leaks, a secret operation against North Korea's regime and its nuclear ambitions is still being prepared.
It is too early to judge when and where North Korean dictator will be attacked. But judging by concerns expressed by Seoul, just during the Olympic Games it is likely there will be further escalation of the situation. Many analysts have repeatedly indicated that this sporting event will be derailed. And the latest developments in the region only confirmed the validity of their warnings.
It is to be hoped that North Korean problem will be solved not at the cost of many thousands of the Olympics visitors' lives because Kim Jong Un, who claims to be almost the Supreme God and is crazy with his absolute power, can use the entire arsenal at his disposal against innocent people.
