My biggest concern here is that Kim Jong-Un has been holding off on war until he had ICBMs, which it’s now the case, and they can reach any target in the US.
I’d trust that the US’s missile defenses could pretty easily stop North Korea’s entire arsenal. They’re not getting anywhere else China/Russia/whoever also launched a strike, at which point we’re all fucked anyway.
Nuclear war is bad for business, I really, really doubt China’s interested in starting one on NK’s whim
When the CCP pops the tombstone out in half a decade to join Putin’s failed USSR 2.0, they’ll be leaving little ol’ Un in his land island all alone and orphaned of big bullies to ally with. Thats when shit is gonna get fucky. NK doesn’t do business.
This is how I imagine China and North Korea in international relations.
No they can’t. They can maybe, if the wind is just right and luck is with them, reach the West Coast Hawaii is questionable as well.
It seems that Kim Jung Un’s most recent solid fuel ICBMs have benefited from Russian help. It also explains the increased range.
