The Soviets pulled their troops out of the north and the Americans out of the south. But a year later, an emboldened North Korean military fatally underestimated America’s Cold War geopolitical strategy and crossed the 38th parallel, intent on reuniting the peninsula. The Americans knew that if they didn’t stand up for South Korea, their other allies around the world would lose confidence in them. If America’s allies began to hedge their bets or go over to the Communist side, then its entire global strategy would be in trouble. Similarly, today, countries such as Poland, the Baltic States, Japan, and the Philippines need to be confident that America has their back when it comes to Russia and China. The U.S., leading a UN force, surged into Korea and pushed Northern troops to the border with China. Chinese troops — not wanting the U.S. within striking distance — fought back and after 36 months both sides agreed to a truce back on the 38th parallel. — Tim Marshall
