Good luck convincing a developed nation to accept 26 million refugees overnight, who are likely undernourished and undereducated. In exchange, you get 120K KM of land which might be resource-wealthy, but then you also have to be mindful that there might be terrorists who oppose the government.
Reunification sounded great decades ago. It still sounds great on paper in a best case scenario (aka. fantasy land). Even if it’s “the right thing to do”, though, it’s not going to be easy.
