Sinopsis

In this segment of By Any means Necessary, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Greg Elich a member of the Solidarity Committee for Democracy and Peace in Korea and the author of Strange Liberators: Militarism, Mayhem, and the Pursuit of Profit to discuss the upcoming general elections in south Korea and the geopolitical contours that affect the race and US involvement in the peninsula, how south Korea’s proximity to north Korea and China impacts the stakes of the election and US interest in the eventual winner, and current president Moon Jae-In’s myopic focus on a peace declaration that would have little effect on the potential for peace on the Korean peninsula.
