that you've spouted in this thread so far. Although I don't know you well enough to say for sure, it sounds like you're not exactly trolling, just taking this position and being very logically consistent with it to show how messed up it really is if you take it seriously.
A nation can *pursue* trade. It's not guaranteed. There is no *right* to actually have trade, let alone to get it by force if other people don't want to play with you.
Gotta love that use of the word, "pressure". It doesn't mean the US literally forced other nations to join the embargo, but it carries the connotation of physical force, which makes NK seem more justified. |
