Foreign ministers from nations that joined forces to repulse Communist invaders during the Korean War will meet today in Vancouver, Canada to address the growing threat posed to the Free World by North Korea.

China and Russia will not be present. That’s appropriate since they are part of the problem as they prop up the regime in Pyongyang, enable its weapons build-up and have shown little interest in really being part of the solution.

Accordingly, expectations for this get-together are low. Yet, it was veto-wielding Moscow’s absence from a key United Nations Security Council vote in July 1950 that allowed the nations gathering in Canada today to come together to defend South Korea under the rubric of a UN peacekeeping operation.

If anything, it is even more imperative that the Free World unites now to deal with North Korea’s present danger.

This is Frank Gaffney.
