Analysis What should President-elect Trump do about North Korea?Americans surveyed overwhelmingly support maintenance of status quo
Following the U.S. election on November 8, NK News issued a Google survey asking Americans what they believe President-elect Donald J. Trump should do about North Korea. In 2016, North Korea continued to develop both its nuclear and ballistic missile programs despite international condemnation as well new unilateral and multilateral sanctions. President Barack Obama was unable to intervene or negotiate a stop to these activities and his so-called policy of “strategic patience” is widely seen as a failure. Donald J. Trump’s election could mean a significant shift in American policy, though it’s unclear what shape exactly this will take. Trump © Korea Risk Group. All rights reserved. |
