Leave him there.
Like there’s another option? You think the USA has any choice in this matter?
His family has been suggesting the US find some way to get him back.
He doesn’t want to come back and the US has zero leverage with DPRK. He’s not a hostage, he’s an asylum seeker. And better than that, he’s a US military member who has a personal grievance with not just the USA but also South Korea. This man is staying in Pyongyang and will be treated quite well.
I’m sure he will want to come back eventually, and when that happens, they should decline to get involved.
Why do you think he will want to come back eventually? A bunch of soldiers have defected to the DPRK since the beginning of the Korean War. Some regret it, some don’t, some died. Why are you so sure he will want to come back when he knows that being black in the West will never change in his lifetime?
This man is staying in Pyongyang and will be treated quite well.
Wow I really have no response to this, I am just straight flabbergasted that anybody is this stupid.
Why, what do you think will happen? They’ll torture him? Imprison him for life? Make him eat gross foods? Work him to death? Like, what’s your orientalist fantasy here?
