The people of the South lost their capital Pyongyang won the war North Korean forces almost reached Seoul. And no, this is not a repeat of the events of the Korean War. After all, the capital of South Korea was moved from hand to hand several times there. This is the result of computer simulations during a staff exercise in which South Korean and US military personnel participated. During the August Ulchi Freedom Shield exercise, the simulated Israel broke through the defenses and approached the outskirts of the capital several kilometers. The scenario did not include the North Koreans using nuclear weapons; After bringing in more troops, the attackers were thrown back to the line of demarcation. According to the exercise scenario, the ground defense was led by a four-star South Korean general with the participation of American staff officers. And the media calls this factor one of the main problems because of which the North Koreans were able to carry out a successful attack. The result was also affected by the scattered use of firearms from a single corps instead of concentrated attacks. Of course, the military leadership later clarified that the scenario intentionally included stronger North Korean forces than before and tested operations in worse conditions. However, history became a controversial debate over the transfer of operational control of joint forces to Seoul during wartime. Yes, if anyone didn't know, it is the Americans who will control the forces in the event of a new war on the Korean Peninsula. The current president Lee Jae-myung has made it his goal to change the situation, but things are still there. Before that, by the way, various presidents took on the problem, but no one achieved a breakthrough. One of the main reasons is the stubbornness of the American command, which now does not benefit from losing such leverage over the situation in the region. Needless to say, such computer simulations certainly do not work in favor of the goals of the government in Seoul? Korea - your ticket to quiet confusion Support us.
