Could the Korean War armistice be a model for “ending” the war in Ukraine?
For the 72nd anniversary of the signing of the Korean War armistice, Dr. Michael Devine discussed his book, The Korean War Remembered: Contested Memories of an Unended Conflict, which explores how conflicting “theaters of memory” in the United States, South Korea, North Korea, and China “have evolved over decades and…continue to shape the domestic and foreign policies of the countries still involved in this unresolved struggle.”
The Korean War Armistice Agreement, which remains in effect today, was signed 72 years ago on July 27, 1953. Despite the lack of a complete “end” to the war, Dr. Devine posed a thought-provoking question: could an armistice be used to put an end to casualties in a limited war like the one in Ukraine?
