Answer:

Both the Cold war and the Korean war are fought on the same ideology and principle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Korean war was important to the both the countries - United States and the USSR to show their supremacy. The Korean war is quite similar to the Cold war. The Korean war was considered as an important development in the Cold war as it was for the first time both the super powers of the world fought a "proxy war" in a third country. The ideology behind the war of communism and democracy and the confrontations of the two countries were same in the two wars. The war was fought by the communist North Kora supported by the USSR and China and the Democrat South Korea supported by USA and UK.

America handled both the war equally with the help of other democrat countries. Americas policy was to always support and spread democracy around the world. The Korea war was a proxy war for the Cold war.
