** 26-Apr-2020 World View: The future of North and South Korea
The mere announcement of a plan to withdraw troops from South Korea
would, by itself, be viewed as a surrender, and would bring about the
worst of the consequences that you fear.
"And there is a very real possibility that the leftist government
under President Moon might surrender to the Chinese and North Koreans
in the event of an ultimatum." --- No there isn't. There isn't a
snowflake's chance in hell that the South Koreans would surrender to a
Chinese/North Korean ultimatum.
Moon may be the head of a "leftist government," but that doesn't mean
surrender. One example occurred in July 2017, when Moon responded to
a North Korean ballistic missile test by approving further THAAD
deployments in South Korea, after having blocked them previously.
This caused the usual whining and screaming from the CCP thugs, and a
Chinese boycott of Lotte department stores and South Korean tourism.
But Moon certainly did not simply surrender to China's demands. In
fact, South Korea stood up more firmly to Chinese demands than many
other countries have been doing.

In this generational Crisis era, nobody is going to surrender without
a new Korean war -- something that South Korea doesn't want, North
Korea doesn't want, and China doesn't want.
The fact is that the North Koreans have much more in common with the
South Koreans than with the Chinese. Kim's goal has been to reunify
Korean under a North Korean government, not a Chinese government.
If the reports are true the Kim Jong-un is close to death, then China
is facing a major crisis. There's a possibility of détente between
North and South Korea, such as the one that eventually led to the
reunification of East and West Germany, that would shut out the
Chinese.
So there are several possible scenarios about what's going to happen
next. But announcing an American troop withdrawal would trigger the
wrong scenarios.
