As major powers engage North Korea, the denuclearisation of the Peninsula is unfolding as one of the most defining challenges in shaping regional security. As the future of the region continues to remain plagued by the developments in the Korean theatre, the theme of this volume, Major Powers and the Korean Peninsula: Politics, Policies and Perspectives, was decided with the objective of advancing understanding and analyses on critical issues shaping the future designs in the Peninsula. IDSA’s maiden volume on the Korean Peninsula would not have been possible without the erudite and dynamic leadership from Director General, Amb. Sujan R. Chinoy. I would like to express my deepest gratitude for the institutional support extended by IDSA leadership in facilitating this volume. This work has been enriched by the unfailing support and encouragement from my colleagues at the East Asia Centre. I would particularly like to thank Dr. Jagannath P. Panda, Coordinator of the East Asia Centre, for his guidance in the early stages of planning this volume. My colleague, Mr Vivek Kaushik has been greatly supportive in providing editorial assistance and administrative support for this publication. I would like to thank all the authors for bringing in their wealth of expertise into this volume. I deeply appreciate them for investing time in participating and brainstorming during the workshop held in May 2018, and subsequently develop their analyses, as reflected viii | Major Powers and the Korean Peninsula in the chapters. This volume is intended to advance academic debates, discussions and scholarly deliberations on critical issues in the Korean Peninsula. However, neither IDSA nor the editor assumes any responsibility for the author’s individual arguments and perspectives. Any factual incongruities in any of the chapters in the volume are the sole responsibility of the individual author. Dr. Titli Basu List of Contributors Amb.

  • South Korea Section 3
    DEFENSE WHITE PAPER Message from the Minister of National Defense The year 2010 marked the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. Since the end of the war, the Republic of Korea has made such great strides and its economy now ranks among the 10-plus largest economies in the world. Out of the ashes of the war, it has risen from an aid recipient to a donor nation. Korea’s economic miracle rests on the strength and commitment of the ROK military. However, the threat of war and persistent security concerns remain undiminished on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea is threatening peace with its recent surprise attack against the ROK Ship CheonanDQGLWV¿ULQJRIDUWLOOHU\DW<HRQS\HRQJ Island. The series of illegitimate armed provocations by the North have left a fragile peace on the Korean Peninsula. Transnational and non-military threats coupled with potential conflicts among Northeast Asian countries add another element that further jeopardizes the Korean Peninsula’s security. To handle security threats, the ROK military has instituted its Defense Vision to foster an ‘Advanced Elite Military,’ which will realize the said Vision. As part of the efforts, the ROK military complemented the Defense Reform Basic Plan and has UHYDPSHGLWVZHDSRQSURFXUHPHQWDQGDFTXLVLWLRQV\VWHP,QDGGLWLRQLWKDVUHYDPSHGWKHHGXFDWLRQDOV\VWHPIRURI¿FHUVZKLOH strengthening the current training system by extending the basic training period and by taking other measures.

  • 5 "Our People Want Russia to Be A
    INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: 2018: #5 "OUR PEOPLE WANT RUSSIA TO BE A STRONG, INDEPENDENT AND PEACEFUL STATE" Author: Vladimir Putin President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin took part in a meeting of ambassadors and permanent representatives of Russia at international organizations and associations, where he outlined the main goals of Russian diplomacy. July 19,2018, Moscow URL: http://en.kremlin.ru COLLEAGUES, welcome to this traditional meeting. First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to the leadership, staff and veterans of the diplomatic service for their efforts to protect Russia's national interests and for their contribution to international cooperation. The Ministry's central office, our embassies and all other Russian missions abroad are acting professionally in a coordinated manner, fulfilling the tasks set before them. Russia is pursuing a responsible and independent foreign policy in a dynamically developing and eventful global situation. Our people want Russia to be a strong, independent and peaceful state. We are open to partnerships, to mutually beneficial and constructive relations with all countries and regional associations. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, Russia will continue to defend the fundamental principles documented in the UN Charter, which are sovereignty, equality of states, non-interference in other countries' domestic affairs, and the just resolution of disputes. We believe that by observing international law and working together we can deal with the most complex world problems. It was with Russia's decisive role that international terrorism, ISIL and other extremist groups suffered a crushing blow in Syria. This allowed Syria to maintain its statehood and create conditions for its economic recovery and the return of refugees.

  • Missiles Fire and Fury
    US-KOREA RELATIONS MISSILES FIRE AND FURY STEPHEN NOERPER, KOREA SOCIETY AND COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY Tensions rose to new levels on the Korean Peninsula as North Korea fired multiple missiles demonstrating markedly enhanced capabilities and crowned the Labor Day weekend with a sixth nuclear test with a significantly larger yield than previous tests. The United States tackled its most significant global security challenge by reinforcing its deterrent capabilities, tightening the financial noose on the North, President Trump tweeting stern warnings, and military and diplomatic leaders calling for dialogue. South Korea responded by reiterating its military readiness, expanding its own missile capabilities, and reeling from Trump’s rhetoric that likened President Moon Jae-in’s push for talks to “appeasement” and his threat to scrap the KORUS trade agreement. Despite joint military exercises, live fire drills, B-1 dispatches, and shared statements condemning Pyongyang to signal alliance strength, the relationship between the United States and South Korea appears frayed in dramatic new ways. This article is extracted from Comparative Connections: A Triannual E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations, Vol. 19, No. 2, September 2017. pp 35-42 US-KOREA RELATIONS | SEPTEMBER 2017 35 No more maybes free trade agreement (FTA) were a slap in the face of the new Seoul administration. South In 11 years, North Korea has developed Korean President Moon Jae-in met Trump on dangerous nuclear and delivery capabilities. The June 30, and the Washington summit seemed to premier national security concern conveyed go well.

  • How Does One Talk About the Korean Situation
    How does one talk about the Korean situation? For some it is a military target to be destroyed1, for others a casualty figure2, for some a human rights violation3, for others a failure of government4. But all these stories focus on the question of governance, or statesmanship. It is a world of shifting estimates and military designators. There is no people involved. What I wish to discuss is the human side of the conflict. For contrary to the widespread attitude of the media, people DO exist North of the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), there is life within the supposed hellhole of human existence between the Yalu and the DMZ, and the featureless face wrapped in digital camo with a K2 rifle is the firstborn of a family and the pride of his grandparents who eagerly await the day their grandchild returns to the hometown. This is a monologue. This is a shambling product of deep-seated frustration and resentment. But more importantly, this is also intended to be a product of love, of care, of acknowledgement, a letter in a bottle for the brothers separated by war, by design, by fists and lies wielded by faceless figures. It may never reach the other side, but I have made my peace with that. For this letter is addressed to myself as much as the brothers of the two sides. 1 Peters, Ralph. “The moral answer to North Korea threats: Take them out!” New York Post, Sep. 2017. 2 Shear, Michael D., and Michael R.
