There are a couple of obvious historical models for Trump’s administration to draw from. One is an enduring success. The other was a total failure
When people in the English-speaking world imagine the end of a war, they reflexively think of May 8, 1945 – V-E Day, or Victory in Europe Day, when Canada and our allies celebrated the defeat of Nazi Germany. The enemy unconditionally surrendered. Its military would be disarmed, its government would cease to exist, and every inch of its territory would be occupied. Total victory for one side. Total defeat for the other.
But even the 1953 model involved difficult compromises. Syngman Rhee, South Korean president at the time, was opposed to the armistice because he still hoped for a single Korea, under his government. The 1953 armistice line, drawn where the armies agreed to stop fighting, is now the de facto border between two states.
