Korean War

Introduction

It is now established that on 25 June 1953, the North Korean troops crossed the 38th parallel and invaded South Korea, winning almost all the territory in a few weeks and forcing the U.S. to respond. They seek the intervention of the UN they get thanks to the vacancy Soviet Security Council, Moscow protesting against the award of the Chinese permanent seat in the Republic of China (Taiwan), not People's Republic of China (PRC). The military intervention led by General Douglas MacArthur and twice landed in Pusan ??in September 1950 and Inch'on to pushing the North Korean army beyond the 38th parallel. But the cons-American offensive, conducted under the auspices of the UN, is opposed by China's military by reaching the Yalu River materializing the border between North Korea and the Beijing regime. The cons-Chinese attack entails the withdrawal of the military coalition below the 38th parallel. Contrary to the notion that the will to invade the PRC and to use nuclear weapons against it was only a fad of General MacArthur, intensive discussions were then rocked the U.S. government before the triumph of the way the downturn facing the Chinese threat.

In this paper, we will try to explore that whether the Korean War was actually a war between the U.S. and the Peoples Republic of China backed by the Soviet Union.
