South Korea Chooses Peace: Why The US Won't Like It | The Political Vigilante | Graham Elwood

In this video, Graham Elwood examines the election of South Korea's new progressive president, Moon Jae-in, and his immediate pledge to pursue peace and open diplomatic talks with North Korea. Graham contrasts Moon's willingness to engage in dialogue and de-escalate tensions on the Korean Peninsula with the aggressive, muscular foreign policy of superpowers. He discusses the dangers of flexing military might, the need for empathetic and diplomatic leadership over sabre-rattling, and why the United States must abandon its role as a global bully in favour of true anti-war, progressive diplomacy.
