has developed a reputation as an erratic, unpredictable leader. Anyone suspected of disloyalty or uncooperative to the leadership could be removed. It is believed the new young leader views nuclear weapons as a symbol of power and prestige necessary to establish credibility as a military leader in the international community and crucial to regime preservation and survival. This penchant for nuclear weapons is apparently worth the risk of isolation

I must convince China that their desired outcome for N. Korea, stability, cannot be achieved until the nuclear threat from North Korea is completely removed. It is imperative that they begin to understand that they must take on a more active role. The isolation and sanction tactics we’ve imposed has made N Korea more reliant upon China as its primary source of food, fuel, investment, and international political support. The turmoil surrounding N. Korea’s nuclear possession directly affects China’s security. Regrettably, China is doing very little to move the denuclearization effort forward. Instead, they are encouraging North Korea to improve their economic development through acceptance of their politics in order to increase their own economic and national stability. Prolonging and ignoring the issues merely extends and exacerbates the danger. Chinese leaders can’t continue to be naïve and realize they can easily be caught off guard by the unpredictable actions of the North Korean

In Mary Oliver’s, The Black Walnut Tree, she exhibits a figurative and literal understanding on the importance of family and its history. The poem is showing that your emotional value is what’s more important than your physical value (money). By using symbolism and imagery the poet illustrates an intricate relationship between the “Black Walnut Tree” to the mother and daughter being both rooted deeply in the earth and past trying to reach for the sun and the fruit it will bring. Symbolism constitutes the allusion that the tree is the family both old and new. Imagery portrays the image that the tree and family are connected by similar trails and burdens.

While the collapse of the Soviet Union left the world in a precarious place with some nuclear material in some sketchy hands, overall the situation stabilized, and most are accounted for. However, it’s the procurement program established by Khan to make Pakistan nuclear, that has slowly drifted into an import business, most notably to Iran and some suspect, to North Korea. One attempt was discovered by the arms inspectors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), but little evidence as to what was received was found. Because of international attention brought on by the Khan Network, legal frame work like the Proliferation Security Initiative has been strengthened to criminalized proliferation. UN Security Resolution 1540 further also called for “all states to criminalize proliferation to nonstate actors and to establish, review and maintain appropriate export control systems” (Chapter 2.5, pg. 263, Forest and Howard, 2013).

North Korea is a mysterious place to outsiders but from the inside it may seem normal because the people have no sense of reality or awareness. In the novel 1984 a made up character named ‘Big Brother’ is much like Kim Jong-Un in our world. There are two parties outer and inner and the inner parties consist of people from the inside and the wealthier class unlike the outer witch holds the middle class. The outer party of 1984 worship Big Brother and most are forced to because they are being watched by spies and telescreens (surveillance systems). North Korea is very similar to 1984 due to the constant surveillance and the cult of personality.

A Fictional and Non-fictional Communist Government Throughout history, there have been many different ways a government can control its people, but these two radical styles of ruling-in North Korea and the novel 1984- are comparable in many ways.

Every observer of North Korea would agree that the chances of dealing successfully with the emerging threat have diminished considerably over the past eight years. Many would argue that achieving results is no longer possible and therefore the new administration should focus on other foreign policy and national security challenges. Nonetheless, the dangers to the United States and its allies posed by developments in North Korea are so great that Washington cannot afford to ignore this problem. In formulating a policy, the Trump administration should not fall into the same traps as past administrations. It must recognize not only the myths and misconceptions that can lead to failed approaches, but also that the challenges posed by North Korea are unique and therefore do not readily lend themselves to the approach that worked with Iran.

It is essential to have the international community's agreeance and support from the P5+1, South Korea, and Japan. The DPRK regime has invested the majority its GDP into their nuclear and ballistic programs and now the North Korean people have come to expect to have nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities for their security. So, in order to achieve this policy goal while also ensuring the DPRK regime's goals are being meet, I also recommend that in addition to the expansion of diplomatic and economic sanctions, to open multilateral negotiations for a freeze of North Korea's nuclear and ballistic missiles programs. A proposed freeze could possibly prevent the DPRK regime from further nuclear technological advances and also potentially limiting the incentive to sell its nuclear stockpiles to rogue actors. In order for the expansion of diplomatic and economic sanctions to be a realistic option and a successful course of action, the international community within the region will need to fully support

The transition of power in China changed the dynamics of post-World War II relations. For the United States, the so-called “Loss of China” was a a catastrophe, not only because the US supported Chiang Kai-shek in the last few years, but also because it seems to be a victory for the Soviet Union and the global Communism. For China, in 1949 started for the first time in its history the possibility to build foreign relations without being “suppressed by unequal treaties” by western powers. But China‘s relations to other countries remained very complicated and complex.

In order to counteract their threats communications must improve. Russia is an important giant nation that is useful to us, but lately they have been undermining the United States and our democracy by consistently spying, dismissing, and hacking us. China is also an essential nation because we owe trillions to them and they are our major trade partner. They are currently using North Korea as a pawn against us by continuing to support them. We can not take any major actions against China since it would cause higher tensions.

Probably the only country in the world that totally rejects globalization, North Korea, upon becoming a separate country in 1948 when the Korean peninsula was divided into two separate countries in the aftermath of WWII, has emerged today as the world’s most enduring isolated totalitarian socialist society in recent history, according to Freedom House. Trapped somewhere amid a medieval monarchy and a communist party-state, North Korea has been ruled under an iron fist doctrine for more than half a century by the dynastic succession Kim Il-sung, Kim Jong-Il and Kim Jong-un (hereinafter referred to as the Kims) still exhibiting many features of the typical Stalinist political system and bureaucratic regime, emphasizing the one man–centered

George Orwell’s novella “Animal Farm” illustrates that modern day and past leaderships tend to let power consume them, which then causes them to treat civilians wrong. Kim Jung Un(the dictator of North Korea) and Napoleon(the tyrant of Animal Farm by George Orwell) both took advantage of their “fame” which led to them losing the trust and loyalty of their followers’ trust. For example, both force lower class civilians to work for free. Napoleon also starves the animals which is similar to Kim Jong Un and his acts towards civilians in North Korea. Finally, Both Kim Jong Un and Napoleon sleep in luxury homes, whilst others are out sleeping in the cold.
