2022: Year of living dangerously
Predictions are galore as to how the New Year of the Tiger will unfold. Uncertain, turbulent and contested are popular adjectives describing the world before us where worries overshadow hopes. The main sources of such apprehensions are systemic, structural and deep-rooted, while others are transitional or cyclical.

It's diplomacy, stupid!
Two years ago, Bill Burns, the then-president of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and now the CIA director, criticized President Donald Trump for what he termed “the demolition of U.S. diplomacy” in his article in Foreign Affairs magazine. This assessment seemed to reflect the thinking of not just the Biden camp but also of the mainstream of America.

Linchpin or cornerstone? It takes two to tango!
In diplomacy, semantics and symbolism are no less powerful than actual policy or strategy. The U.S. administration's use of the terms “linchpin” and “cornerstone” vis-a-vis its alliances with Korea and Japan, respectively, is a case in point. They are used with a strategic rationale and episodes behind them.

Two Koreas' long journey to UN and agenda for peace
This month marks a historic milestone for us Koreans - the 30th anniversary of the two Koreas' simultaneous admission to the United Nations.

Five months into his presidency, U.S. President Joe Biden's foreign policy is taking shape at the right pace. This is most prominent in the evolution of his China policy. During his presidential campaign, he envisaged a long game in meeting Chinese challenge to the United States and across the world, while laying out some areas of possible cooperation, such as climate change, non-proliferation and global pandemic.

Art of diplomacy, the North Korean way
The first summit between President Joe Biden and President Moon Jae-in held in Washington, D.C. last week formalized the outcome of the new U.S. administration's North Korea policy review.

Myanmar democracy genie will not return to bottle
All eyes are now on Myanmar following the country's Feb. 1 military coup and the arbitrary detention of members of the government, including State Counsellor Aung San Suu Kyi, President Win Myint and others. The three-finger salute raised by Myanmar's U.N. envoy Kyaw Moe Tun at the U.N. General Assembly on Feb. 26 eloquently epitomized the scope and level of the ongoing pro-democracy movement in Myanmar, known locally as the “Spring Revolution.”

Good deal, bad deal or no deal
“It is peace for our time, peace with honor,” British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain declared to jubilant crowds in London upon his return from Munich on Sept. 30, 1938. Early that morning, the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy had signed an agreement in Munich. It allowed Hitler's Germany to annex Sudetenland of Czechoslovakia.

Quo Vadis, CVID?
“America is back” proclaimed President Joe Biden multiple times before and after his inauguration.
