This "nuclear strategy" is currently being made under Biden, are you fucking stupid? Reps are functionally identical to dems, specially in their foreign policy.

As to accusations of genocidal tendencies, neither nation has a clean record.

The US murdered 30% of the DPRK's population in the Korean war, destroyed all its infrastructure, still has sanctions on it hurting its working class population, and is currently committing a genocide right now. Just how delusional are you libs?

We've also seen what happens to socialist countries that don't have a nuclear deterrence. Libya made the mistake of dropping its nuclear program to improve western relations, and has been reduced to rubble as a result. DPRK's nuclear deterrence is the only reason why the US hasn't dared to invade it yet, despite the regular "military exercises" near its border in occupied Korea.

In a sense, countries like the DPRK and Cuba are biding their time for when US sanctions lose their effectiveness as US influence declines with the Global South's rise.
