Japanese sincerity and Korean forgiveness: beyond apology, compensation
Japanese sincerity and Korean forgiveness: beyond apology, compensation
It happened after a long time. The top leaders of South Korea and Japan visited each other's capital cities in quick succession. First, the South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol visited Japan on March 16-17 and then the Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida visited South Korea on May 7-8.

If Trump returns
If Trump returns
As the 2024 U.S. presidential primary campaign season begins, the most likely final contest is a rematch between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Judging by the electoral map in 2020, Biden would be well-placed to win. But American politics is unpredictable, and any number of health, legal, or economic surprises could change the outlook. Hence, many foreign friends have ...

Governing the unknown
Governing the unknown
Technology is changing the world faster than policymakers can devise new ways to cope with it. As a result, societies are becoming polarized, inequality is rising, and authoritarian regimes and corporations are doctoring reality and undermining democracy.

Governments must meet their biodiversity pledges
Governments must meet their biodiversity pledges
My work has taken me far and wide, across oceans and vast expanses of land, and I have been lucky enough to see firsthand some of the richest biodiversity hotspots on Earth. But at the end of the day, I always return home - to Liberia, to Africa, which offers the most extraordinary natural landscape and wildlife. The African continent is undoubtedly the planet's biodiversity ...

Envisioning nuclear arms control in challenging times
On Feb. 21, as Russia marked one year of its “special military operations” in Ukraine, President Vladimir Putin announced the suspension of Russia's participation in the United States-Russia New START treaty. He stated that its resumption was only possible if the U.S. “cut off support for Ukraine and bring France and the United Kingdom into arms control talks.”

Turkey's pragmatic Islamist
Turkey's pragmatic Islamist
What does President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's election for an unprecedented third term mean for Turkish foreign policy? Not much. In fact, even if the opposition had won, the country's foreign policy would have changed only in style, not in substance. For Turkey, striking a pragmatic balance between its obligations as a member of NATO and its working relations with Russia and Ch...

Supply side of decarbonization
You have heard this before: greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) are too high to stop catastrophic changes to our climate. Countries, companies, and families must be made aware of the fragility of the planet we live in.

China owes Korea much explanation
China owes Korea much explanation
China is once again on Korea's back. Following President Yoon Suk Yeol's state visit to the U.S. and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's visit to Seoul last month, China did not hesitate to issue a successive warning message that Korea's seemingly values-driven diplomacy is deteriorating already-damaged bilateral relations with Beijing.
