The two Koreas engaged in border conflict, which escalated when North Korea invaded South Korea on June 25. The Korean War was a proxy war for the Cold War. The West—the United Kingdom and the U.S., supported by the United Nations—supported South Korea, while communist China and the Soviet Union supported North Korea.

This being said, I would say that Option A is the best choice.

Hope this helps!
