China has a profound understanding of the strategies in the Korean Peninsula, and it is highly probable that it will intervene and engage if North Korean contingencies were to occur. China did not strictly deny the possibility of the direct intervention of PLA in unavoidable circumstances. More than a few experts on this matter claimed that China would consider active military intervention upon North Korea's private request or if the ROK-U.S. Combined Forces or the U.S. Forces alone intervenes during the contingencies. China's intervention in the North Korean crisis may evolve into a conflict within the South Korea-China relations as the case is closely related to the future unification problems of the Korean Peninsula. The North Korean contingencies may have dramatic implications on the China-North Korea relations but are also concerned with South Korea's ‘vital interest'. Chinese cooperation is essential for the stable management of the North Korean contingencies. With regard to the issue of the North Korean contingencies, sharing some common perceptions between South Korea and China may be the first step forward in security cooperation between these two states. |
