The Secret of the Special ＂United Nations Army＂ Manipulated by the United States in the Korean War

　　　　The term "United Nations Army" first appeared in the history of the United Nations in the Korean War. Under the banner of the United Nations, the United States organized 16 troops to intervene militarily in the Korean issue, expanded the Korean War, and spread the war to the border areas of China, threatening China’s national security.

　　　　The Korean War began on June 25th, 1950 and ended on July 27th, 1953, which lasted for three years, one month and two days. During this period, the United States manipulated the United Nations to pass a number of resolutions, pieced together 16 troops to form the "United Nations Army" and put them into the Korean battlefield.

　　　　What kind of troops is the "United Nations Army"? Which countries’ troops does it consist of? How does it pull the "banner" of the United Nations as a "tiger skin"? The author systematically disclosed the inside story of the "United Nations Army" in the Korean War by synthesizing various materials and interviewing relevant experts for readers.

　　　　The formation of the "United Nations Army" was premeditated.

　　　　After the Korean War broke out, while the United States intervened by force, it manipulated the United Nations to adopt a series of resolutions, which put on a legal coat for its armed intervention. In fact, it is the established policy of the United States to use the United Nations to take "collective action" in Asia, which can be said to have been planned for a long time.

　　　　When the victory of the Second World War was in sight, the heads of allied countries put forward their ideas on the fate of North Korea when discussing the post-war international arrangements. In November 1943, at the Cairo Conference, the heads of the United States, Britain and China wrote in the Cairo Declaration jointly signed: "My three major countries are concerned about the slave treatment of the Korean people and decided to make North Korea free and independent for a considerable period of time." In February 1945, at the Yalta Conference, US President Roosevelt proposed to Stalin: "North Korea should be managed by a representative of the Soviet Union, an American representative and a China representative, and the shorter the trusteeship period, the better." Stalin agreed and suggested that Britain should also be invited to participate in the trusteeship. Therefore, the plan of temporary trusteeship for North Korea by the United States, the Soviet Union, China and Britain after the war was decided at the Yalta Conference.

　　　　However, before the four countries reached a specific agreement on the trusteeship of North Korea, in early August 1945, Soviet troops launched an attack on the Japanese Kwantung Army stationed in northeast China and North Korea. At this time, the nearest American ground troops to North Korea are still 600 miles away in Okinawa. On August 10th, the State Council held an emergency meeting to discuss the issue of surrender in North Korea.

　　　　Assistant Secretary of State Dunn suggested that the area where American troops accepted Japanese surrender should move northward as far as possible. However, Colonel Rusk Dean, the chief of staff of Defense Minister Marshall, pointed out that it was difficult for the military to enter North Korea before the Soviet army because of the lack of troops to immediately invest in North Korea and the factors such as time and space. As a result, Assistant Secretary of the Army Mike and Colonel Charles Bonisti put forward "a"

　　　　As far as possible to the north, but not "rejected by the Soviet Union", the two had envisaged dividing the boundaries of surrender according to the administrative areas of North Korea, but there was no information at the moment. In a hurry, they noticed that the 38th parallel of north latitude (referred to as the "38th parallel" for short) on the map almost passed through central Korea, and that Seoul (now Seoul) and its nearby concentration camps were all south of the "38th parallel", so they decided to use the "38th parallel" as the dividing line of the surrender area. This proposal was quickly agreed by the US military and the State Council, and was approved by President Truman on August 14th.

　　　　On August 15th, Truman sent a telegram to Stalin, informing the Supreme Allied Commander douglas macarthur of the "General Command No.1" on the details of Japanese surrender. One of the contents of this order was to take the "38th parallel" as the dividing line between the United States and the Soviet Union in the surrender area of the Korean peninsula.

　　　　On August 16, Stalin replied that he "basically did not object to the contents of the order" and did not raise any objection to the issue of North Korea’s demarcation line.

　　　　Therefore, the Soviet Union and the United States successively sent troops to North Korea, where two surrender areas were divided by the "38th parallel", and the United States and the Soviet Union accepted the surrender of the Japanese invaders. Senior Japanese commanders, land, sea, air and auxiliary forces stationed in North Korea, Manchuria, Sakhalin Island and Thousand Islands, north of the "38th parallel", surrendered to the Supreme Commander of the Soviet Far East Army; The Japanese government’s base camp, senior Japanese commanders stationed in Japan and its surrounding islands, North Korea and Ryukyu Islands south of the "38th parallel", as well as land, sea, air and auxiliary forces, surrendered to the supreme commander of the US Pacific Army.

　　　　By the time the surrender orders of the Soviet Union and the United States reached the battlefield, the Soviet army had crossed the "38th parallel" and was advancing towards Seoul. After receiving the order of the "demarcation line", the Soviet army withdrew to the north of the "38th parallel". On September 8th, the first batch of American 7th Infantry Division who arrived in North Korea landed in Incheon and occupied the south of the "38th parallel" of North Korea.

　　　　It is this temporary dividing line that was surrendered, and later became the "national border" that divided North and South Korea. South of the demarcation line is ruled by the government of the Republic of Korea headed by Li Chengwan, which is supported by the United States; North of the dividing line is led by the Labor Party headed by Kim Il Sung, who is supported by the Soviet Union. At the end of 1948 and in June 1949, the Soviet Union and the United States successively withdrew their troops from North Korea.

　　　　The military significance of the "38th parallel" to surrender is only superficial and temporary, but its political and strategic significance is long-term. After the end of World War II, the United States urgently needed to build the Korean Peninsula into a frontier to curb communism for the sake of global strategy. In a letter to President Truman, the representative of the President of the United States, Paul Lai, said: "Although North Korea is a small country, judging from our overall military strength, our responsibility here is not great, but this place is a battlefield for ideological struggle, and our entire victory in Asia depends on this struggle." This statement represents the view of American policy makers.

　　　　From March 29 to May 10, 1948, the US occupation forces dispatched tens of thousands of military and police officers to forcibly hold universal suffrage in South Korea. After Li Chengwan came to power through unilateral illegal elections in South Korea, he was instigated by the United States to arrogantly shout: "To solve the North-South division, it must be solved by war." And put forward the slogan of "unification in the north". Under the provocation of Li Chengwan, from January to October, 1949, South Korean military and police launched 432 armed provocations against North Korea on the "38th parallel".

　　　　On January 12, 1950, US Secretary of State Acheson gave a speech entitled "Asian Crisis-A Review of American Policy". In his speech, Acheson drew a circular defense line in the western Pacific to deal with the military threat of the communist camp. This defense line runs along the Aleutian Islands, passes through the Ryukyu Islands until the Philippines, and South Korea and Taiwan Province are excluded from the defense line. He said that when these two regions are attacked militarily, "we must first rely on the attacked nation to resist, and then rely on the responsibility of the entire civilized world under the UN Charter". This set the tone for American policy towards North Korea and Taiwan Province, that is, relying on "United Nations Action" to deal with military actions in these two regions. This policy decided that the United States used the form of "United Nations Action" to organize "United Nations Forces" to intervene in the Korean War.

　　　　It was under the instigation of the United States and the provocation of Li Chengwan’s "northward reunification" that the Korean War broke out.
