Abstract
Although the Korean War has ended with the signing of an armistice 70 years ago, there is still no stable peace on the Korean Peninsula, and both countries are formally at the state of war. In addition, as 70 years ago, North Korea is complicating the situation by escalating weapons. Thus, only in 2022–2023, North Korea conducted more than 70 missile and nuclear tests. The Korean War, which began as a civil war, soon turned into the largest international conflict. And once again it showed that the systemic opposition of great powers plays a big role in the world. It is known that at that time such opposition was the USSR and the USA. This article briefly describes the causes of the Korean War, who first started the war, the course of hostilities, the role of the Soviet Union, the United States, and China. The article provides an analysis of the events of those days from the standpoint of modern approaches and materials taking into account the situation that has changed over the past 70 years. In addition, the article suggests that even today the lessons of the Korean War are increasingly relevant, especially in the context of events taking place in the world nowadays. Such as Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, the tense situation on the Korean Peninsula, the Taiwan Strait and other regions of the world. Of course, the lessons and conclusions of the Korean War are given in this article in order not to repeat the mistakes that were made in the course of solving the Korean problem, as the global confrontation of conflicting global socio-political systems continues. Also, the world public needs to create a balanced system of influence on negative events in the world, taking into account the democratic principles of equality and justice. The Korean War once again showed that the problem of Korea (the division) cannot be solved by military means, and therefore it is not necessary to aggravate the situation on the Korean Peninsula, but to look for ways to solve the problem by peaceful means. Now the arms race is being escalated all over the world on an unprecedented scale, the “cold war” has flared up with new force. Conflict situations have arisen in many regions of the world, and therefore the lessons of the Korean War are another warning to the whole world.
