US Foreign Policy Towards North Korea's Nuclear Program

Answer:

Based on some factors above that inflence United States foreign polity toward North Korea, I sure that United States will not use its military power first to stop North Korea’s Nuclear Program. Even, United States will use its military power if the North Korea wage war to United States first or to South Korea and Japan. Also, United States hav already if oneday North Korea attack them or United State’ alliances.

The other reason is after the United States involvement doing war on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan, the United States economic is decrease than before because for the cost of war. Also, both of United States and Iraq, Afghanistan, lose many of their soldiers in war on terror.

Last reason is economic interest. United States wage war on terror in Middle East not only doing war but also try to get oils from its companies after the war finished. If we compare with North Korea, what does the North Korea has?

So, I think its will rather hard to United States wage a war with North Korea because of many factors, but the most influnce is national interest factor. No oil, No war.
