The single major event leading up to the Korean War was a speech given by Dean Acheson, the American Sect of State. Acheson's speech on January 12, 1950, before the National Press Club did not mention the Korea Peninsula as part of the all-important "defense perimeter" of the United States, an omission that critics subsequently took to mean that the United States would not defend the RoK from communist attack It has been said that Acheson's speech emboldened the North Koreans to attack, believing that South Korea lay beyond the American defense line, and that American support would be limited.
