Tyler Lutz History Senior Seminar Senior Thesis Paper Cult of Personality: North Korea under Kim Il-Sung Lutz 1 North Korea, The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, or “The Hermit Kingdom” as it is occasionally referred to, is the most isolated country in the world today. Its people have lived under the dictatorial rule of the world’s only dynastic communist regime, that of the Kim family for over half a century. The country is highly militaristic, highly idealistic, and always appears to be on the edge of instigating a new conflict in the region. The country itself is relatively young, having only split from the South immediately following World War II. Up until that point, Korea had been a unified nation for over 1100 years. Their history was for the most part peaceful and stable, until the late 19 th century when increasing pressures from the West and the Japanese forced Korea to open up to the world.

  • Comparative Connections a Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations
    Comparative Connections A Quarterly E-Journal on East Asian Bilateral Relations US-Korea Relations: Smooth Sailing in the Wake of Cheonan Victor Cha, Georgetown University/CSIS Ellen Kim, CSIS The sinking of the Cheonan remained the predominant issue in the US-ROK relationship as both countries spent the quarter coordinating and undertaking punitive measures against North Korea for its alleged attack on the ship. The UN Security Council adopted a Presidential Statement condemning the attack but did not directly blame North Korea. The US and the ROK held their first “Two-plus-Two” meeting in Seoul where Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates met Foreign Minster Yu Myung-hwan and Minister of National Defense Kim Tae-young. While countries reopened their dialogue channels in the hope of resuming the Six-Party Talks, there remain many challenges and uncertainties that make the future direction of the Talks unclear. Several issues remain to be resolved on the KORUS FTA while negotiators are expected to hold a ministerial meeting soon to strike a deal. The Chicago Council on Global Affairs released a report on US attitudes toward South Korea that highlighted public support for trade agreements, including the KORUS FTA, is lukewarm. Among those who viewed fair trade as critical for US interests, support for KORUS was much stronger. Cheonan round 1: UN Presidential Statement Tension persisted from the beginning of this quarter as countries tried to reach agreement on the UN Security Council measure over the sinking of the Cheonan. While tireless wrangling and unyielding negotiations between the US and China continued over the language of the Presidential Statement to be issued, North Korea threatened to start a “death-defying war” if the statement condemned North Korea for the sinking of the Cheonan.

  • Monthy Recap: May
    MONTHY RECAP: MAY DPRK NUCLEAR NEGOTIATIONS May opened with optimistic statements from U.S. envoy to six-party talks Christopher Hill and his newly appointed counterpart from South Korea, Kim Sook, after meeting in Washington,. Hill stated that after the DPRK completes its requirements, “[the United States] will certainly complete ours.” A Washington spokesperson also reaffirmed at the beginning of May U.S. commitment to remove North Korea from its list of terrorism-sponsoring states, although at the end of the month, this had not yet occurred. In addition, South Korean Foreign Minister Yu Myung-hwan announced that the United States and North Korea were expected to set up government offices in their counterpart’s capital, however, there was no timeline mentioned or any confirmation on the status of such a plan by either U.S. or DPRK officials. On May 1, it was also reported that the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee had passed legislation that waives the Glenn Amendment, which restricts the Department of Energy’s funding regarding countries that have conducted a nuclear test. This will allow the energy department to “provide material, direct, and necessary assistance” to North Korea’s denuclearization activities. On the same day, the committee also passed a bill that would restrict the government’s ability to remove the North from the list of terrorist-sponsoring states, requiring, if approved by Congress, the Bush administration to “certify that the DPRK has provided a complete and correct declaration” of all its nuclear programs first. North Korea has announced that it would be willing to blow up the cooling tower at the Yongbyon nuclear facility within a day after Washington removes it from the terrorist-sponsor state list.

  • His Excellency Ambassador Sung Kim Ambassador United States of America Manila 8 June 2020
    His Excellency Ambassador Sung Kim Ambassador United States of America Manila 8 June 2020 Your excellency, The International Press Institute (IPI), a global network of editors, media executives and leading journalists for press freedom, requests your intervention in the case of Maria Ressa, a member of the IPI Executive Board and a leading journalist who founded the news website Rappler. As you must be aware, Ms. Ressa, a dual citizen of the United States and the Philippines, is an internationally acclaimed journalist who has been repeatedly targeted by the Philippine government for her courage and resolve to uphold press freedom and speak truth to power. Her website has been critical of President Rodrigo Duterte and has written extensively about the war on drugs and state- condoned extrajudicial killings. Ms. Ressa’s journalism has been acknowledged and hailed around the world. In 2018 she was one of four journalists named Time Magazine’s ‘Person of the Year’ for taking “great risks in pursuit of greater truth.” That same year Rappler received the IPI-IMS Free Media Pioneer Award. As a result, the government has filed as many as 9 cases against Ms. Ressa in a blatant attempt to silence her and shut down Rappler. These legal cases, which are only aimed at criminalizing her reporting and carry combined sentences of more than 100 years in prison, include two libel prosecutions, two criminal cases alleging foreign ownership in Rappler and investigations of old tax returns. In one of the cyber libel cases a judgement is expected to be delivered by the Manila Regional Trial Court on June 15.
