Real challenge after PyeongChang
Events leading up to the opening of the PyeongChang Olympics have proven once again how difficult it is to make progress on the most pressing issue of peace on the Korean Peninsula.
2018-02-11 17:26
Conflicting interests in Olympics
As the 2018 Winter Olympics approach, major players of influence over the Korean Peninsula _ including the two Koreas, the U.S., Japan, and China _ have divergent hopes and concerns from what might evolve from North Korean participation in the Games.
2018-01-28 17:18
Thorny road to denuclearization
In the past few days, there has been a significant development on the Korean Peninsula: an outcome of high-level inter-Korean talks on Jan. 9 that resulted in assuring the safety of the PyeongChang Winter Olympics to begin next month and also opened a fresh window of opportunity to reduce tension and hold possible talks on denuclearization.

Korean Peninsula in 2018
The year 2017 was a year of turbulence and tension on the Korean Peninsula. Perhaps, the biggest blessing for all was that somehow war was avoided.
2017-12-31 17:12
Hope for peace on Korean Peninsula
In Beijing last Thursday, President Xi Jinping of China and President Moon Jae-in of South Korea agreed on four important principles: not to tolerate war on the Korean Peninsula, to support a denuclearized Korean Peninsula, to achieve denuclearization through dialogue and negotiations, and to improve inter-Korean relations towards the end of denuclearization.

Unattractive options on N. Korea
Following last Wednesday's launch of the latest North Korean ICBM _ the “Hwasong-15 _ that soared to an altitude of 4,475 kilometers and flew 950 kilometers in 53 minutes, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un declared his country had realized “the cause of completing the state nuclear force (and) the cause of building a rocket power.”
2017-12-03 14:08
Compounding of N. Korea issue
In the wake of Trump’s Asia trip and following a two-month pause of North Korea’s kinetic provocations, the Korean peninsula appears to have been relieved from the risk of an imminent military conflict, although high tensions continue. A clear path to the resolution of the nuclear/missile issue is still missing. Trump’s trip was focused on the North Korean nuclear threat, U.S. trade imbalances, and on a new, broader U.S. Asia policy - for trade and security interests - for the Indo-Pacific region. Throughout his trip, Trump did well, by sticking to the scripts, away from his usual bombastic ...

Mending ties between Seoul and Beijing
Perhaps the biggest diplomatic development in Asia in recent weeks was an agreement between South Korea and China, in which both countries said they will try to put their estranged relationship “back on a normal track.”
2017-11-05 19:12
Beyond sanctions on N. Korea
As President Trump will visit Asian capitals next month, including Tokyo, Seoul and Beijing, many analysts are busy figuring out what impact his trip may have on the prospect of a solution to North Korea’s nuclear and missile threat. Upfront, I do not see the likelihood of any dramatic change in the current course of a “pressure campaign” that is spearheaded by Washington, with the strong support of its allies and partners. There will be no big deal with China, no “Korea passing,” no agreement on a trilateral alliance that will include Japan, no clarification of military options and probably...

Theory of two madmen
Everybody knows that Kim Jong-un will not negotiate away his nuclear-tipped missiles and is determined to complete the development of an operational nuclear force that can strike the United States. Donald Trump does not believe dialogue is the answer, especially not at this time. He is more inclined to a military solution. Nobody knows what will be a good solution or an exit strategy. On or around Oct. 10, the anniversary of the Korean Workers Party’s foundation, Pyongyang may hold another new ballistic missile test or launch a second ballistic missile from a submarine. Another nuclear test ...
