Donald Kirk
Dealing with Biden
Together, North and South Korea confront Joe Biden with what may be the most unnerving foreign policy problems of his presidency.
2021-01-21 17:06
Freedom to inspire or incite?
For the U.S., the worst is yet to come, and that's not just over the few days before Joe Biden's inauguration next Wednesday (Jan. 20) as the 46th U.S. president. The furor over free speech and freedom to protest, intermingled with the impact of COVID-19 on tens of millions of Americans who don't share the bounty of stock dividends and inflated salaries and bonuses, will make legitimate debate and the threat of violence a fact of American life for a long time.

Trump's mad obsession
LONDON - In Europe, Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson is sometimes called the English version of Donald Trump. And in the U.S., Trump's bitterest critics liken him to a dictator, maybe an American version of Hitler or Stalin or Mao or even his bosom buddy Kim Jong-un in Pyongyang.

Brits in denial
Much of Britain is on level four in the battle against COVID-19, but you might not know it from watching people in the week between Christmas and New Year. A quick survey of pedestrians in and around Hammersmith station in west London showed about half not wearing face masks. On buses and subway trains, no one was enforcing rules about masks, and warnings to stay home were easily ignored despite signs in lights advising, “COVID-19 CASES VERY HIGH PLEASE BE CAREFUL.”

Leaflet wars
By Donald Kirk There never was a Christmas like this one. COVID-19 has frightened countries around the world into cutting down or cutting out gatherings, and in the U.S. Donald Trump ― Mr. Bluff and Bluster himself ― is concocting fiendish schemes to overturn the results of the presidential election before the U.S. Congress meets on Jan. 6 to certify the victory of Joseph Biden. At least we can say we haven't descended to open conflict, to guerrilla warfare, to breakaway states in open battle, all of them united against the United States, one nation hitherto indivisible with liberty and just...

Trump's last stand
The great New York Yankee baseball player, Yogi Berra, played in 14 World Series, hit 358 home runs and made it to 18 all-star teams, but he's just as well remembered for one enduring line, “It ain't over 'til it's over.”

Human rights for both Koreas
We hear so much about human rights that many of us are tired of the term. Sure, North Korea is an egregious human rights violator. True, Americans, ranging from law enforcement people to officials hauling in illegal immigrants and asylum seekers along the Mexican border, violate human rights too. And, yes, a number of American friends and allies have far worse records. Assaults on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness may vary in degree but are commonplace everywhere in one form or another.

Tales of gloom and doom
The North Korean economy is in such dire straits that none of the experts know quite what to do about it other than beg Kim Jong-un, please, sir, reform the economy and do away with your nuclear program in return for sanctions relief and a lot of aid.

Trump remains unpredictable
The rise of Joe Biden is ushering in an array of old and new names vying for the president-elect's ear, or the ears of those close to him, or the ears of anyone who knows anyone who might be orbiting a planet that may be remote but not too far away from the sun as to be invisible. Think of all the departments, agencies,

Undoing Trump's mistakes
It's not difficult to overstate the importance of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) just signed by China and 14 other nations, mostly in Asia, including the 10 members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) plus South Korea and Japan (The other two signatories, Australia and New Zealand, are in the same region but, heaven forbid, would never identify as “Asian”).
