AB - North Korea has developed diplomatic relations focusing on diplomacy that is opposed to the US since its national foundation and such an external base has been consistently maintained during the cold war and post-cold war period. It created the idea of Juche as a national ideological government system to survive the split between China and Russia when they both requested North Korean support. As a result, the external base was turned into independent diplomacy for North Korea.
North Korea sided with anti-American countries for strategic development of weapons through enhancing international solidarity, exchanges, and cooperation and had consistent military exchange agreements with countries of the third world during the Cold War period. Military exchanges between North Korea and countries of the Middle East have centered on strategic weapon systems. Anti-American countries of the Middle East imported North Korean missiles as a baseline means of defense against the US. Such military exchange activities have been monitored by more powerful countries as an international issue.
Enhanced military exchange between North Korea and the countries of the Middle East was a frontal challenge to the status of the US as a Police State. Military diplomacy between them threatened the United Nations Security Council system by resisting the authority of the permanent members including the US and there is a possibility that this phenomenon will aggravate them further. Military exchanges between North Korea and countries of the Middle East will focus on the development of strategic weapon systems and directions for disarmament agreements. Better relations with them will be more effective than unilateral restraints.
